Microsoft says it has done extensive work to make the database more reliable, reducing the need to rebuild. Over the course of two months, working with both the beta and the final shipping version, I experienced no database problems.

As a test, I rebuilt the database anyway, and noticed an improvement over a similar rebuild in Entourage the rebuild no longer loses synchronized data such as e-mail in remote IMAP, Exchange, or Hotmail folders, or the links between items inside Entourage. Entourage uses a single database file to store its information, and that file can become quite large over time.

If you receive even a single e-mail, the whole database is marked as new, and Time Machine will back the entire thing up every hour. When it comes to supporting typical Mac OS X technologies, Entourage is still ahead of the rest of its Office stablemates.

And though all of the Office programs support AppleScript, Entourage has by far the most complete implementation. As a new feature in the regular and Special Media Editions but not in the lowest-cost Home and Student Edition , Entourage provides eight sample workflows for Automator, letting you do things like create a zip archive for a group of messages, or print selected messages.
