I never said the database wasn't problematic, but not everyone has problems.

Users have indicated they felt they were being forced to either update to
Outlook or move to Mail. All I'm saying is Entourage will continue to work
for some time.

Alternative method to use Entourage and Time Machine (does a once a day or
whatever time period you select) This quits Entourage and the Microsoft
Database daemon allowing for once a day backup into Time Machine.

Entourage and Time-Machine-like backup (creates chronological backup of
Identity can be used by both Tiger and Leopard allowing you to roll back to
previous dated backups.

FWIW, even though you can backup Outlook to Time Machine, I will probably
still do once a day rather than hourly. I really don't want archives of all
the spam and other newsletters etc I get daily backed up.
