Not if the alternate port is an additional port. For example, our mail server (Not Exchange) listens for SMTP connections on port 25 and port 2025 (many mail admins use 8025). This way, if our remote users are connected to the 'net via an ISP that does port 25 blocking, they don't have a problem since they connect via port 2025. However...I don't believe that port 25 blocking is your issue since you state that dropping back to using Outlook works fine (Unless Outlook doesn't use SMTP to submit messages for sending). Can you tell us more about the network setup? Behind a firewall? NATed addresses? Are the Entourage users who can't send on the same subnet as those using Outlook who can? -Remo Del Bello -- "Yet even the most subtle spiders may leave a weak thread." - Gandalf the Grey in "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
