Hi all
We have used Entourage and Exchange for over 3 years now and still find
that, amongst our 90 Entourage users, we are usually rebuilding one person's
Database every other day (sometimes more often). This has been deemed by
upper management to be a waste of our time.
If it was not for our need for calendar/email delegation I would use Apple's
Mail and Kerio, but latter doesn't support it last time I looked.
So questions about Entourage and making it work for us:
- We have mailboxes >5GB - can anyone confirm the theoretical max for
Entourage 2004 and 2008 databases (if different)?
- What's the max items in a person's Inbox? Is there any actually evidence
of problems occurring if there are too many, say 1000?
- For those with experience in adminstering Entourage 2004 and 2008 with
Exchange 2003 SP2 do you have Best Practice advice to avoid these problems
(there's Sysadmin and Users Best Practice of course)
- Has anyone managed to find Shared Calendar/Email in an email Server other
than Exchange?
If anyone from the Mactopia crew happen upon this thread, then please
explain why corruptions occur in the database and rather than just repair it
everyday can we have some tools to find out what the problem was. We're
techies as well.
Thanks for your help.
Regards
Craig
