Schedule meetings with the new and improved calendar
Entourage 2008 has a redesigned calendar interface that makes it easier and more intuitive for
users to schedule and manage meeting invitations.
Accept, Tentative, and Decline from the Calendar Attendees can change meeting status directly
from the event. Calendar management actions, such as declining a previously accepted meeting
directly from the event, are more straightforward and consistent with Outlook.
Meeting update and cancellation improvements Entourage 2008 provides meeting organizers
more flexibility in managing invitation updates and cancellations. Organizers can choose whether
to update attendees about a change or cancellation, and they can include comments. If attendees
are added or removed from a meeting, the organizer can choose to update all attendees or just
those attendees whose status has changed.
Meeting Reply, Reply All, and Forward By using Reply, Reply All, and Forward, organizers can
quickly correspond with meeting participants through e-mail without opening or changing the
meeting. Attendees can now easily forward their meetings to others who they think should
participate. Those additional attendees receive their own copy of the invitation and can choose to
accept if they agree.
Out of date invitation detection Entourage 2008 is smarter about handling updated invitations,
making it easier for meeting participants to know which invitation is the right one. Old invitations
are labeled Out of Date, and the Accept, Tentative, and Decline buttons are disabled, leaving only
the current invitation active.
Invitation Conflict and Adjacent banners Invitation banner accuracy is improved, especially
around delegation and single-user concurrent Outlook and Entourage Calendar usage. In addition,
Entourage 2008 includes Outlook-inspired time management banners called Conflict and
Adjacent.
No Response Requested support Entourage 2008 respects No Response Requested invitations
and simply creates the event on the Calendar without sending a response to the organizer.
