Note You cannot use Entourage 2008 with a version earlier than Microsoft Exchange 2000
Server, such as Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5. That is because these versions of Exchange
Server do not support WebDAV. To connect to Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5, you can use
Outlook with Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac.
The following must be enabled on your network.
Server type Requirement
Computer that
is running
Microsoft
Exchange Server
• Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server with Service Pack 2, Microsoft Exchange
Server 2003, or Microsoft Exchange Server 2007

• If you want to use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) with Entourage 2008, you
must enable SSL on the Exchange server. For more information about
how to enable SSL with Entourage 2008, see Enable Secure Sockets Layer

• Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is required if you want to
provide Global Address List (GAL) access and password expiration notices;

delegate rights in Entourage, a public folder server must be installed in
your organization. For more information about creating an Exchange
