Entourage backing up database.

[slayer91790]

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if there is a 3rd party program that could backup your Identity/Database on Entourage 2008 automatically or a organized method to backing it up yourself. I am having user losing their information because their database are being corrupted and losing everything even after trying to rebuild and repair the database. They are using iMac's 10.5 -10.7 would appreciate some advise on this issue.

Thanks

See this link for different options to backup Entourage.

What type of account(s)? (POP, IMAP, Exchange)

I highly suggest if the user is POP they switch to IMAP. All messages could be downloaded from the server if the database gets corrupted.

Thanks for the link! It's a Exchange email.

Does duplicating the main identity folder be considered backing up the data base?
