Setting up Entourage 2004 (or Entourage X) to Connect to the UMUC Exchange Server.  

Summary
There are two options to connect to your UMUC Exchange account for Mac users.
    1. Outlook Web Access (OWA), from the address: http://webmail.umuc.edu
    2. Use Entourage 2004 (recommended version).
Please note that after migration, your previous UCMail Entourage (IMAP) account will be inaccessible.
Below are five steps to setting up Entourage for UMUC Exchange.

Note for EntourageX users:
Public folder access is not supported in this version but is supported in Entourage 2004. 
Thus you can skip step 5 below. Please be sure to request an upgrade to Entourage 2004 as soon as you can.
