Entourage 2004 upgrade to 2008

[vincez]

Version: 2004
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
Processor: Intel
Email Client: Exchange

Hi all,

I am a newbie entourage user. I am planning to upgrade entourage 2004 which comes as part for office 2004 for mac to entourage 2008.
Entourage has been configured to connect my enterprise exchange server.
I am wondering if the upgrade will require me to reconfigure my current profile or will the profile be retained after the upgrade. Can someone please assist?
Thank you so much

Everything should come over with the import. If you qualify for the new EWS
version of Entourage you should install v13. It's free to Entourage 2008
users.

Entourage 2008, Web Services Edition has launched

How do i know if i qualify?
Sorry if i sound like an idiot

If you are a user of Microsoft Office 2008, you qualify. Keep in mind that
you need to be running either one of these editions:

* Standard Edition
* Special Media Edition
* Business Edition

to be able to use Exchange. If you only use the Home & Student Edition, you
can certainly upgrade to Entourage Web Services Edition, but you won't be
able to use Exchange accounts.
