Microsoft Office Live

Exchange 2003: Applications that Access the Information Store
I would always create a service-specific (Atempo, Blackberry, GFM, Symantec, etc) account that is not a Domain Admin but is an Administrator. Then I would provide the rights mentioned here.

Entourage Migrations
I originally posted this at http://www.318.com/TechJournal For years, we’ve had issues with the fact that there is no good built-in auto-archive feature for Entourage. This has led to many an Exchange environment getting out of control with a lot of Mac clients. To get around this issue, check out Entourage Email Archive X 3.4.0. It’s a utility for archiving emails and/or attachments for Entourage in Mac OS X. EEAX 3.x works on OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) with Microsoft Entourage 2004. You can Download latest EEAX 3.4.0 from: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/14011 If you need an evaluation copy drop an email to: info@softhing.com.
