 The problem with moving email in Entourage
Hello All,
I've been testing a demo of ZCS on Ubuntu Server 6.0.6 with Microsoft Entourage for Mac 2004 v11.3.3. So far I really like what I see; the shared calendars, contacts, and web UI are all great. The only issue that I've had is moving emails from Entourage to ZCS. However, I think I found a path that works and isn't too inefficient.
Moving emails onto the server from Entourage yields messages whose date stamp is incorrect; furthermore, you can't just move a whole folder at a time. What I've found is that Apple Mail v2.1 on OS X v 10.4.9 does a much better job of moving messages into ZCS. Apple Mail seems to handle the threaded messages better and you can move multiple, full folders in Apple Mail. In Entourage, you can't move the folders straight over to ZCS, you have to create the folder in ZCS via IMAP and then move all of the messages over. Another item to note with Apple Mail is that if you move a multi-tier folder structure, it doesn't seem to move all of the messages in the top level folder.  |
