Entourage Exchange Accounts Optimizer 1.0

Just the other day a co-worker of mine wondered if there was a way to have Entourage (she's using 2008) automatically archive messages like Outlook does (we run Exchange on the job, which stores all your messages on the server; you run the risk of going over your quota if you don't archive things to a local mail store from time to time). I had to report that Entourage does not automatically archive (though it really should), and sadly I knew of no other automatic solution for her.
I now have a much better answer for her: Entourage Exchange Accounts Optimizer 1.0. It gives Entourage (2004 or 2008) the auto-archiving features that should be built in. You launch EEAO and tell it how old messages should be before they are archived, where to archive said messages to, and if you want it to run on a schedule. That's it.
Entourage Exchange Accounts Optimizer costs $10, though a free demo is available.

This seems pointless. All you need to do is create a default rule in Entourage that copies the message to a local folder. There's absolutely no need for an external application. I've been doing this for years, in Entourage for no additional cost.

Is this "demo" simply to show you that it can launch?
An alternative to this is the free AutoArchive Exchange Account from http://www.entourage.mvps.org/exchange/autoarchive.html - the Leopard issue that is mentioned is addressed here: http://www.themssforum.com/Entourage/Apply-rule-89418/

Please advice how to deal with no line breaks in gmail emails in Entourage. When my boos receives with his Entourage an email anybody sends from gmail, it shows up with line breaks. But when he hits Reply -- all the line breaks in the message he is replying to are gone. Anybody seen this? Please advice how to deal with this? I suppose there should be a way to change some settings so that Entourage would preserve the original line breaks.
Everybody in the office has to stop using their gmail accounts and I'd rather fix the Entourage line breaks thing.
