Entourage is losing my emails sent to brand-new webmail account

Mac OS X ver 10.5.8, 2.53 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor, Microsoft Entourage

I just created a couple of email accounts for a new domain I needed for my
business. It's very weird, as I can send emails from the webmail site; I can
send and reply from and to my gmail account; but when I try to send an email
from Entourage using my day-to-day email account to this new email account,
it simply disappears. Never arrives, no error message, nothing. I tried
sending an email to the other account I just created and behaves exactly the
same way. My friend is experiencing exactly the same problem using MS Outlook.
.. is this another Microsoft thing I don't know about? Thanks for your help!

Are the messages viewable using your web interface to your account? BTW,
who is your provider for the problem account.

I've been on mailing lists where I never saw any of my messages I sent
to the list, but others would see them. I found out it was my ISP that
thought this was 'helpful' behavior. I changed addresses and I was able
to see if my messages actually made it to the list.

Note: In the future provide your version info for Entourage. eg.
Entourage 2008 12.2.4.

Thank you Diane. No, they are not viewable if I send them from Entourage. If
I send a message to this account from anywhere else, I will be able of seeing
it both in the webmail site and in Entourage (after it is downloaded from the
pop server of course). But if I initiate the message from Entourage, from any
account, to this new account, it never arrives. The webmail is provided by
networksolutions. I've used their webmail before but this is the first time I
have problems and looks like MS Outlook behaves exactly the same way with
these new accounts I created.

It's possible this will fix your issue.

Does Entourage indicate it sent the message?

If you send from anywhere else, do you get a bounce message?
