This may be due to the means of authentication being used -- by the STMP server you are sending to and/or the authentication options selected in your Entourage setup. Mail servers commonly establish restrictions based on authentication to restrict who can send mail through them as a means of preventing spam.

Cable companies for example, and possibly your campus network, often restrict the sending of Mail to those computers that have a local connection to their network based on the IP address they are using -- i.e. where you plugged in or which wireless adapter you are connected to. Alternatively, many others require your mail client to present your user name and password to authenticate... or possibly to authenticate only in those cases when you are not connected locally.

So... to get an iron clad answer, you need to find out from the Mail server administrators what type of authentication is required. This information is often listed on "help" web pages describing how to set up your mail client... or call them if you can. Alternatively, check your Entourage setup to see how it is contacting the server for outgoing mail. Try changing the authentication method to use Password authentication if it is not already. Ultimately, the mail administrator for your Mail server is likely your best help resource.

Hope this helps.

Hi I am using entourage to send/receive email via my mac air. Not sure why there is problem on getting email in but able to send out email when overseas. I have untick SSL and selected port 110. Any ideas?

try to contact your isp and ask for their incomming mail server. because sometimes isp will block the incomming mail server that you are using. They will only allow you to use their incomming mail server.

How to Send a Message From a Computer to a BlackBerry?

A BlackBerry is like the holy grail of communication devices. There are certainly multiple ways of receiving messages on a BlackBerry device---via text message, BlackBerry Instant message, or even with AOL Instant Messenger (AIM). Probably the most convenient way to send a message from a computer to a BlackBerry handheld device is to send it via email.
Instructions
  1. Get the BlackBerry email address of the intended recipient. The recipient may use an alternate email account from which their messages are forwarded to their BlackBerry device.
  2. Open your email client (e.g., Microsoft Outlook, Apple Mail or Entourage) on your computer or log on to your web-based email account.
  3. Compose a message. Mail it to the intended recipient at the email address that they use on their BlackBerry.

As of today. I'll emails with attachment I'm getting from office emails are coming in as windat files. Do you know what's going on?

Hi,

Let me guess, the emails are coming from a Windows PC not a Mac. There's no problem with your Entourage. The problem is the Windows PC sending emails to you.

Based on my research, This issue usually happens when a Windows PC sending emails with attachment to a Mac is running Windows Vista and using Goggle Chrome as their default browser.

Hope this helps.
Cheers!

Unable to receive mail in Entourage from POP server.

Not really sure what is wrong but would suggest that you check your account setup under tools/Accounts and see if the setting for advanced settings for receive is set to "This POP service requires a secure connection" is checked or not. It depends on what your ISP requires

I have a MAC OSX Version 10.5.8 and Microsoft Entourage 2004 Version 11.4.0. Since 25 July 2009 I have been unable to receive or send e-mails using Entourage. I get a message saying Access Forbidden. ...

Hi,
Send & Recieve Basics:

1. If you can receive but not send then you have a bad SMTP configuration
2. If you can send but not receive you have a bad POP or IMAP configuration

You can try re-entering info.
You can delete account and create a new one.
Using copy/paste can result in an extra space being added. Type carefully.
Check your Keychain for corruption.
