Response to: Need enterprise email support

This currently is the bane of my work existence. I only have to boot to OS9 at work to use MS Exchange Mail. You can get your email on Entourage, but it doesn't even decode TNEF enclosures, which is a Microsoft standard. You can't see or update your calendar or access you personal store.


I haven't been a programmer for more than 25 years without knowing that it would be a fairly trivial exercise to attach the calendaring to the Entourage calendar, and having compiled the open-source TNEF on my Mac, that doesn't look like a killer to me either. Therefore, one can only make the judgement that Microsoft's decision to not make Entourage a full Exchange server client is political.
