A quick search in Google for "Entourage error 17895" and I find that Nathan Herring with Microsoft provides this better definition of the error code: "This is our internal error netLostConnectionErr, and is generated when Entourage hits eofErr trying to read a network stream from the server and expects more data to be coming. It could also be generated if, when trying to create a connection, we (apparently) successfully authenticate, but then the network connection closes immediately thereafter." <http://www.eggheadcafe.com/forumarchives/macofficeentourage/Aug2005/post234 97902.asp> The two resolutions that I read in different forums both indicated something was wrong on the mail server side. A third resolution was to change authentication settings. I'm assuming you've set up your .Mac account as IMAP and that for receiving you have none of the *none* of the advanced receiving options selected. Correct? -- bill William M.
