The Entourage Conduit does not sync mail.

For Palm Mail on Palm OS 4 (NOT Versa Mail on Palm OS 5) there is a
3rd-party conduit called Mail Courier made by Ligature Technologies, which
works for synching Entourage mail. And it does work on a Clié - I tested it
there.  <http://www.ligaturetech.com/>  (Disclosure: I wrote the AppleScript
end for Entourage for it.)
