Native Exchange client for OS X

Shaun Fjaagesund · Joined: 25 Feb 2008 Posts: 1

I'm using Entourage as the client for 32000+ users, however I'm getting a
lot of databases corupted! I'm not happy having to recreate the login
accounts everyday!

So two questions:
1) Is there a exchange native client for os x for exchange 2003 that does
not use OWA.

2) is there a script I can run on the client computer to recreate or
retrieve the account user settings for the exchange server.

Using Tiger/Leopard

Using Entourage shouldn't cause database corruption.... you might post in
exchange.admin with the exact symptoms you're seeing.

Hmmm - recreating login accounts in AD? That doesn't makea lot of sense,
even if you are having database problems.

No. There's Entourage, OWA, and IMAP clients galore if you want them. Or,
install Windows to run Outlook.

Please post further details to microsoft.public.mac.office.entourage, you'll
find better assistance there. I've crossposted and set followups there.
