Allen,

This is all fine and dandy, but I am interested in changes to my
exchange account being wirelessly synchronized when the changes are
made via Entourage vs. Outlook. Per "jaysonay...@yahoo.com,", Entourage
strips certain aspects of the header (message id, folder id) that the
Blackberry Enterprise Software looks for in order to replicate changes
to the blackberry. It would be great if someone could tell me when
Microsoft is going to fix this bug/limitation.
