In the primary Inbox window, how can I have the date in the Sent column
display the day of the week also (i.e. Tuesday, 6/24/08, 3:00 PM instead of just 6/24/08, 3:00 PM)? Thanks a lot.

Ooh, great question!

The date format in Entourage 2008 is set by the Short date setting of
the International pane in System Preferences.

First, quit Entourage.

Then go to Apple menu --> System Preferences... --> International -->
Formats and click on the Customize... button under Dates.

Select "Short" in the drop down menu.

Drag the Day of Week icon from the list at the bottom to just before the
date in the field above. Each part of the date field is customizable and
you can include spaces or other characters. I suggest adding a space
between the Day of Week and the Month items so they don't run together.

Launch Entourage.

Keep in mind that this will affect all applications that use the Short
date format.

Hope this helps!
