Optimize your Entourage database

I always found it beneficial to periodically compress my .PST files for Outlook on a Windows computer. The same is true for the Entourage database on the Mac.

Begin by stopping Entourage. Then in Finder, navigate to Applications -> Microsoft Office 2004 -> Office and click on the Database Utility. Once the utility starts, select the desired identity (typically Main Identity) and select Compact Database.
