Monday and Tuesday I needed to get away from OMiC because all my trials over the weekend fail and so I looked into Microsoft Entourage 2008 Plug-in development.
I got it, you want a Entourage version for OMiC. My last try is now to contact the General Manager of the Macintosh Business Unit, Craig Eisler. Hope he is kind enough to answer.
Wednesday I looked into the issue why Microsoft Outlook creates ATT000xx.txt attachments, I will blog about it soon.
Thursday finally located most Panther issues and start fixing them. I used for this 10.3 and the Xcode tools which comes with this, this was like a time machine. And I won an systemhelden/systemheroes t-shirt, unexpectedly, for sending feedback
.
Friday fixing Panther issues, and I found a Mac OS X Tiger Install DVD and was able to setup up my old PowerBook G4 as test and build systems for OMiC 2. It’s now running 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5, and now I can use it without the external drive.
Entourage is a pain in the ass, but mail/ical/addressbook is even a larger one. I’d pay big money to have OMiC for for Leopard/Entourage, and since there isn’t a viable solution in the market, I know many others would as well. You’d control the market my friend. If you are still developing it; good luck.
Hi Chris,
the answer from Microsoft is that there is no way to develop Entourage Plug-ins. I think about creating a standalone version, like a unzip application where you double click the winmail.dat in Entourage and it export it to the desktop. Would that be a solution?
