Entourage for Mac 2008

1. Go under Tools à Accounts and select your Account. Click the Delete icon at the top of the screen. This will delete the server account data stored on your computer. This will NOT delete any local email. This MAY TAKE SEVERAL MINUTES where Entourage appears to be doing nothing. Have patience.

2. After this is completed, restart Entourage. Go back to Tools à Accounts and verify that the account is gone. This sometimes hangs and you may need to delete it again. If this happens restart Entourage again.
