I just set up my new Entourage 2008 e-mail account and it accepts mail fine but will not send anything. I keep getting the error 3259. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

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.

I have the same problem, I can recieve mail but not send from either accounts I have deleted and created new accounts but still it is not sending, this is frustrating because I have to use enterouge to recieve and mail to send, I prefer to use enterouge because of the intergration with otgher MS office software etc. any help appreciated

When you add your problem onto a thread, it's confusing. Please start your
own thread. You gave no info on what version of Entourage or the OS you are
using or what type of account.
