First, you can find your answer to this question using google for " forward
html entourage "

But the answer is: use "forward as attachment", or drag the message you wish
to forward into the attachment area of your new message.

Where is the "Forward as Attachment" button in Entourage 2008? How come it won't forward HTML messages correctly. Cutting and pasting a message to forward it seems a little primitive to me.

I must say, coming from Office for PC's I'm really disappointed in the Office for Mac applications. What's the deal??? How come it's so much more difficult to perform the same simple functions on a Mac.

Is it all about Microsoft making preference to PC users and Windows?

How can Microsoft create an inferior product for Macs?

If you right-click (control-click) on the browser window toolbar, you
get to choose which buttons are displayed - 'forward as attachment' is
in there

I think this has as much to do with what you are familiar with as to
what is easier. I use both Entourage and Outlook every day. They do
things differently. For some tasks, Outlook is better, for others I
prefer Entourage. If you've spent years using Outlook, you will find
Entourage limiting and frustrating for a while, until you get used to
it. The same is true of switchers going the other way - a new convert to
Outlook will also be frustrated, until they get used to the differences
too.

The main reason is that the mac products have a much, much smaller
development team (because they have a much, much smaller market share!)

MacBU have made a commitment to increase the size of the team this year,
but I never expect it to reach the size of the windows office team
(which may well be the largest team in MS)

It is interesting to note that the MacBU is _still_ the largest Mac
developer team outside of Apple.

As others have pointed out in this group, Office for Windows sells a lot
more copies than Office for Mac, so that product gets the resources from MS.

Years of practice! ;-)
