WHERE IS THE DATABASE?

Ever tried to find where is your data stored on a Mac?

Each component of Entourage like rules, mailing lists, signatures, messages, address book, schedules, contacts, tasks, notes, calendar are located in a so called database under your identity:
Try to locate 'Main' folder. Your Identity is named 'Main' by default.
In Entourage 2008 this folder would be in /Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2008 Identities/your identity.
In Entourage 2004 this folder would be in /Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2004 Identities/your identity.
In Entourage X this folder would be in /Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office X Identities/your identity.
