Exchange and Entourage 2004

Exchange mailboxes with Entourage 2004
Find your Exchange login details
To access your Exchange mailbox using Entourage 2004, you need the mailbox id and domain. This is different to how you setup a mailbox in Outlook 2003 but the same as if you were using ActiveSync.

Step 1: Log into your Fasthosts control panel and visit your Exchange mailbox’s Configure mailbox page.

Step 2: Click Mail access details.

Step 3: On the Mail access details page, scroll down to the Using a mobile device section. Make a note of the username ActiveSync.

Configuring Entourage 2004
Step 1: Open Entourage 2004, open the Tools menu and click Accounts.

Step 2: In the Accounts window, click the Exchange tab, then click New.

Step 3: The Account Setup Assistant will open. Click the Configure account manually button.

Step 4: Enter a name for your Exchange mailbox in the Account name text-box.

Step 5: Enter your name in the Name text-box. Most people that you email will see this name, rather than your email address.

Step 6: Enter your email address in the E-mail address text-box.

Step 7: Find the ActiveSync username you made a note of earlier and enter it in the Account ID text-box. Enter EXCHANGE in the Domain text-box and your Exchange mailbox password in the Password text-box.

Step 8: Enter http://exchange.livemail.co.uk in the Exchange server text-box.

Step 9: Tick the This DAV service requires a secure connection (SSL) check-box, then click the OK button.

Step 10: Close the Accounts window.

Step 11: Entourage will now connect to your Exchange mailbox and synchronise your email, contacts and calendar.
