[DM-MUG] Entourage issue

[Matthew W.]

You're right. Entourage doesn't do what Mail does... Run well!

It is definitely a personal preference issue, but I cannot stand  
Entourage's calendar. I've used 2004 and 2008, and both are equally  
useless (to me). It forces you to have a local calendar, even if you  
don't use it. If it didn't have built-in Exchange calendar support and  
used widely at work, I'd have hacked Mail and iCal to interface with  
Exchange. As it is, it barely works with Exchange calendaring, but  
that's enough. I don't have time to be the only Mail.app adopter at  
work, but I use it everywhere else.
