Windows Compatibility and Mac OS X

For optimum performance, Apple recommends storing Mac network home directories

on an AFP or NFS server. In cases where these services are not available, network home

directories can be stored on an SMB server. One added benefit of using an SMB server

is that you can access your files using either a Mac or a Windows PC. This is ideal if you

work in a mixed-computer environment with both Mac and Windows systems, because

you can access all of your personal files and system preferences using either type of

computer.

Microsoft Exchange mail and contacts

If your network’s mail services rely on Microsoft Exchange Server (2000 or later), you

can use Mac OS X Mail or Microsoft Entourage to send and receive email. Mac OS X

Mail is a robust email client that features extraordinary Spotlight search capabilities,

integration with applications like iChat and Address Book, and a smart spam filter,

making it a great choice for those who rely on Internet mail.

Mail uses IMAP, an open standard Internet protocol, to communicate with Microsoft

Exchange. Because Microsoft Exchange Server ships with IMAP enabled, configuration

of your Mac Mail client is easy. When creating a new account in Mail, simply choose

Exchange from the account types list and enter the appropriate Exchange server

account name, password, and mail server address. Not only can you send and receive

mail messages, you can also choose to leave them on the server for access from a

variety of computers, or download them so you can review and respond to them

when you’re on the road.

You can also configure Mac OS X Address Book to automatically synchronize with an

Exchange server, so you’ll have access to the same contact information on your Mac as

you have stored on the Exchange server. Because Address Book is used by many other

Mac applications, you’ll have access to the same list of contacts in those applications.

In addition, Microsoft offers Entourage for Mac, available separately and included in

Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac. It’s very similar to Outlook for Windows, works with the

Microsoft Exchange mail server, and enables you to schedule meetings, synchronize

your calendar and address book with the server, and look up email addresses in the

server’s global address list.
