Entourage 2008 Oddities

[Chewy]

I've been trying out Office 2008 (generally impressed) and have run into a couple of problems with Entourage.

Entourage doesn't seem to update Exchange with what is going on... at all.

1. Moving Mail between folders
For example, moving an email from Inbox to '08 Projects' in Entourage. When I log into WebAccess or Outlook '03 the email will still be in the Inbox.

2. Sending Mail
When sending mail in Entourage it marks the email as being replied to and puts a copy in 'Sent Items'. In OWA or Outlook '03 the mail doesn't show as being replied to and there isn't a copy in 'Sent Items'.

We're running Exchange 07 SP1 and Entourage and Outlook are both up to date.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

No idea's, but I have the same issue with Entourage not updating Exchange mailboxes. Exchange 2003, and I end up quitting and restarting Entourage to pick up new mail.

Entourage doesn't have "proper' exchange support it bodges its way in via OWA. Typical of the half arsed approach to Mac Office 2008.

Just tried it via work (Exchange 2003) and Entourage doesn't update changes immediately back to the Exchange server. Needs to complete a send and receive first, hence why it works after a restart. Clicking the button on the toolbar also works.
