Exchange 2007 Connectivity

[tjacobson]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel
Email Client: Exchange

I'm in the process of migrating to Exchange 2007 from Exchange 2003. The Exchange 2007 setup consists of a CAS and a Mail Backend server. Currently the CAS is setup to proxy any accounts still on the Exchange 2003 server to Exchange 2003 OWA. This means that when I log in to OWA as my account has already been migrated to the Exchange 2007 box, I get an error due to <https://mail.server.com/exchange> redirecting to the Exchange 2003 server, meaning I have to type in <https://mail.server.com/owa> to get to my OWA for my account. I'm unable to get Entourage to connect, which I'm guessing is related to the /exchange virtual directory redirecting to the 2003 server. Is there any way I can get Entourage to work prior to having everyone migrated and turning off the redirect to the Exchange 2003 server? I have the beta for Entourage Web Services as well, if I can make it work that way. Thanks in advance!

This may be better asked in the microsoft.public.exchange.admin
newsgroup but if you can access your account via OWA then you should be
able to do so with Entourage.

With Entourage 2008 and Exchange Server 2007, you may need to enter
something like:

mail.server.com/exchange/[email protected]

where "(e-mail address removed)" is your E-mail address.

Hope this helps!
