I'M USING ENTOURAGE AT THE MOMENT AND THIS WORKS FINE BUT CANT SEEM
TO GET "MAIL" TO WORK WITH THE SAME SETTINGS, CAN ANYONE HELP/POINT
ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
Sorry to resurrect this topic which I found in the archives from Jan
2006, but I have the same problem at my work place. Entourage will
connect to our Exchange Server, Mail.app will not and constantly
spits back a "bad password" message.
I've read the follow up posts, which pretty much said "Use Entourage"
Well, if you're in an Exchange environment, it's the most logical
choice.
To use Mail, you have to enable IMAP/POP and SMTP on the Exchange
server.
You may also have to enable some non-default authentication mechanisms
depending on how integrated with Active Directory your macs are.
Address Book requires LDAP, and you have to make sure you enter
your user ID
correctly. There's no easy way to get iCal to talk to Exchange
without third
party applications.
But if you're running Exchange, which means you're also running Active
Directory, you need to have a good IT staff, or, to be blunt, you're
screwed.
