 - Using another email program to access email via OWA Exchange 2003 I have a Powerbook G4 and use it to access the email from my University's Exchange 2003. We do not have a POP server? Nor can the Mac log into the VPN (since the Mac does not use IE 6) I use Entourage 04 to access the Exchange Server's email via the OWA port. Entourage has a setting on its account settings to enter a OWA URL (http://email.rockhurst.edu/exchange). In addition, I have to set an LDAP server URL. Then click the DAV service requires SSL. That seems to be the major settings. Then Entourage basically goes through the OWA port and syncs the emails between OWA and Entourage every couple of minutes. My problem- I really do not like the Entourage Program (other than the ability to do the above). I have worked with both Thunderbird and Eudora to see if I can replicate the settings. Does anyone know if Thunderbird, Eudora or any other Mac email program can do the above? If so, any instructions?

 - Corrupted attachment solution Using Entourage 2004 11.1.0 any attachments that I receive are corrupted. This includes .jpg and .pdf. This is after they are saved to my drive. Curiously, if the attachment is a Word document, this is not corrpted and opens fine as do Excel docs. I sent myself files that I tested before and they were received corrupted. I searched this group and found many mentions of corrupt attachments happening going back to early 2004 but I could not find any solutions. I'd love to hear if anyone has found some solutions!

 - How to Archive old mail and get ready for 2005 This is repost on the last day of the year for those that tend to put things off ---------------------- There may be other ways to archive your old mail files but the following is what I do toward then end of each year to get ready for the new year. Just did it while watching a DVD movie with the family 1. I already had a mail folder called "Archived Mail' with sub folders for previous years. I created a new sub folder called "Mail 2004" 2. Used the standard Entourage tip to drag my current Inbox and Sent Items files to the desktop. This created two mbox format files. It tales a few minutes so please do not rush. 3. Now drag the two new mbox files into the newly created Mail 2004 folder. 4. Check that these files are good copies of your current Inbox and Sent Items in the new Mail 2004 folder are correct. Check that they look like your current Inbox and Sent Items. If not correct, repeat steps 2 and 3 until you get it right. 5. Once you are satisfied (step 4), open your primary mbox and use the "Select All" and Delete Key to create fresh file that will contain your 2005 mail. Do the same thing with your Sent Items file. 6. After you finish the above I recommend rebuilding the database by starting Entourage with the Option key held down. The cool thing about this procedure and the reason I use it is I have almost instant access to old mail files. I just went in and stripped the attachments from the old 2003 files. I have folders for my old Eudora mail and separate folders for 2002, 2003 and 2004. Each year is a mouse click away in Entourage. I have probably made this sound too complicated. It is not! I just saved and stored the old mail. Season Greetings aRKay Tag: How can I get a message that somebody has read my e-mail Tag: 48404

When I open backed up Entourage X (which lives on a different drive), I see all messages, so I know the data still exists. How can a bring all messages into 2004?

 - Rules don't since installing v11.1.0 upgrade Hi, I have noticed that all my rules in the POP tab don't work anymore. Watching other threads, I tried moving one rule called Family to the top of the list of my rules. This rule has multiple criteria including one that says if a specific category (FAMILY) then move to this folder. As there are multiple criteria, the rule is set so that it applies if ANY of the criteria are met. All other rules are disabled, and this rule is the first one in the list. So its the first one that should be tried, and it should work, but it doesn't. Instead of the message being moved to the specified folder, it stays in my Inbox. Yet the message is very clearly categorised as being FAMILY. If I manually apply the same rule (Ctrl-Click then select Apply Rule) the message gets moved to the correct folder. I even created a brand new rule with just one selection criteria (the category) and then another one (with the sender's name in it), made sure they were the first rules and they did not work. -- Regards David Tag: How can I get a message that somebody has read my e-mail Tag: 48400

 - AppleScript to autoquit Entourage Hi! I created an AppleScript to quit Entourage every day (so that it's not downloading my pop mail while I'm at work). This script is called from Entourage on a Schedule (which works just fine) and the script itself worked great under Entourage X. Now that I'm using Entourage 2004, however, I get about a 30% success rate - but 70% of the time, the application hangs and I have to force quit. Here's the script: tell application "Microsoft Entourage" activate quit end tell Any one out there have any thoughts on what I'm doing incorrectly? If I remove the "activate" line, it also works... but I don't know if that's the problem. Thoughts?

 - How to MAKE the icon animate? I have the opposite problem from many people here. In Entourage X I had a rule set up that when mail from a particular person came in, the icon would animate. This also caused an "extra" sound to play along with my regular "new mail" sound -- I think it was adding on the "error" sound, which I appreciated because it meant I had a visual AND aural notification of mail from this person. Now in Entourage 2004 this is not working. The rule is set up that when mail from this address comes in, the icon should animate. (It's turned off in general preferences.) When I get mail from this person, I do get the extra sound...but the icon doesn't bounce. Unlike most here, I want it to. (But only from this person, not for every piece of mail that comes in.) The rule is set at #1 and I have "Do not apply other rules..." selected. Since the extra sound is playing, I know the rule is working. But why isn't the icon bouncing? Thanks.

 - Unreliable Exchange Server Connections Hello. I am using MS Office 2004. I have an Exchange Server at my location. I set up my Mac to authenticate inside the Active Directory the Exchange Server is on (using Active Directory Plugin). I have been using the Exchange Server with Office 2004 for almost two weeks now. I have noticed the following problems: 1. PCs in my office use a DNS entry for the Exchange Server. I am forced to use an IP address. This number is what IT calls the Exchange "front end server" (...136). I cannot connect at all to the Exchange "back end server." (...135) My Mac is using DHCP with AD DNS servers. I am behind the company firewall. 2. If I leave Entourage 2004 connected to the Exchange Server for more than two hours, I cannot recieve or send mail. I have to quit Entrourage 2004 and reconnect in order to send/recieve mail again. 3. Since 2004 Entourage uses WebDav, I have tried connecting to the MS Exchange Server by using an URL like "http://mail.exchange.domain.com". That did not work. Thanks.

 - Contact crashes entourage! help! Hello, I have a contact in my entourage address book that crashes my computer every time I try to open it. I have tried deleting the contact itself several times, and it will not let me delete the contact. I thought maybe it was a virus, but I ran a scanner and it came up emptied-handed. Any ideas as to what this is and how to fix it? Thanks! Tag: How can I get a message that somebody has read my e-mail Tag: 48302

 - -3170 errors I'm helping a friend out with his Mac, and he is running Mac OS X 10.2.8 and using Microsoft Entourage v. X 10.1.6. Everytime he goes to check his Roadrunner account, he gets the "specified server could not be found" error -3170. I've read up on different sites, and here's what I've done for him: * I've recreated the mail account per Roadrunner's instructions on their web site. * I've reinstalled the Office update to make sure he is running the latest version. * I've read up on this group and I have turned off automatically checking names when sending messages. * I have removed Bigfoot & 411 from directory services. * I've typed in the IP address for his pop server rather than using the name. * I've pinged the pop server and I know it's up and running (0% packet loss). * I was able to successfully set up his email client using the Macintosh mail client, so I know his user name & password are correct. Does anyone have any other ideas? In particular, any NC.RR.COM people out there using Entourage? Any help would be greatly appreciated. --Peter Tag: How can I get a message that somebody has read my e-mail Tag: 48300

 - How to Archive old mail and get ready for 2005 There may be other ways to archive your old mail files but the following is what I do toward then end of each year to get ready for the new year. Just did it while watching a DVD movie with the family 1. I already had a mail folder called "Archived Mail' with sub folders for previous years. I created a new sub folder called "Mail 2004" 2. Used the standard Entourage tip to drag my current Inbox and Sent Items files to the desktop. This created two mbox format files. It tales a few minutes so please do not rush. 3. Now drag the two new mbox files into the newly created Mail 2004 folder. 4. Check that these files are good copies of your current Inbox and Sent Items in the new Mail 2004 folder are correct. Check that they look like your current Inbox and Sent Items. If not correct, repeat steps 2 and 3 until you get it right. 5. Once you are satisfied (step 4), open your primary mbox and use the "Select All" and Delete Key to create fresh file that will contain your 2005 mail. Do the same thing with your Sent Items file. 6. After you finish the above I recommend rebuilding the database by starting Entourage with the Option key held down. The cool thing about this procedure and the reason I use it is I have almost instant access to old mail files. I just went in and stripped the attachments from the old 2003 files. I have folders for my old Eudora mail and separate folders for 2002, 2003 and 2004. Each year is a mouse click away in Entourage. I have probably made this sound too complicated. It is not! I just saved and stored the old mail. Season Greetings aRKay Tag: How can I get a message that somebody has read my e-mail Tag: 48298

You can add the necessary header to the sending account manually to request
a receipt from the recipient. Be warned though that not all clients will
send a receipt even if the user has read the message. It's not a
particularly reliable method.
