Entourage displaying incorrect calendar appointment time if the appointment was sent via a Distribut

[Guzzy]

Software Versions:

Macintosh Entourage 2004 Version : 11.3.6
Mac OS Versions tested with same results : 10.3.9, 10.4.10
Exchange 2003 : version 6.5 (Build 7638.2: Service Pack 2)


Entourage Issue:

* User A sends out a meeting appointment to a global Distribution List
X.
* User B is a member of the Distribution List X.
* User B received the meeting invite via the Distribution List X.
* User B's appointment time is not displayed correctly in Entourage.
The appointment will appear 1 hour early. If it is in Day Light Saving
time, the appointment will appear 1 hour late.
* This display issue applies when viewing in Entourage only. If User B
logs in via Outlook Web Access or Outlook 2003, the appointment is
displayed in the correct time slot.
* This display issue applies only when User A and User B are both in
the same Exchange mailstore. If users are in different Exchange
mailstore, the appointment is displayed in the correct time slot.

Is anyone experiencing this strange display issue?

Is your exchange server in a different time zone to the entourage client? If
so, this is an unfortunate by-product of exchange/outlook interaction and
there's not a lot that can be done about it
