I set up my father-in-law with Office 2004 this morning, converting his
Entourage X installation to Entourage 2004. When he tries to send mail, or
receive mail, he gets an error message. I don't have the specific wording,
but it's something like:

     "Entourage doesn't support the requested authentication method"

It includes an error code of "-17897".

His ISP is Qwest, but they use msn.com as their email server.

Here are the attempted resolutions:

 1. We've tried launching Entourage X to send and receive messages, just to
    be sure that the mail server isn't down. Indeed, Entourage X sends and
    receives as it always did.

 2. I've searched the Entourage MVPS Error Page
    <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/error/page.html> for the error code, and
    it's not listed there.

 3. We've verified that the account settings are the same between Entourage
    X and Entourage 2004.

Does anyone know what the -17897 error message means? Or even better, does
anyone know what the resolution to this may be?

Thanks in advance,

    James
