[QUOTE="Jaygray, post: 1003741, member: 50033"] Your home network is probably requiring a unique outgoing server setting. You are set up to send at home, but the setting doesn't work anywhere else. I have this situation myself. AT&T (formerly Bellsouth) requires me to use an outgoing server setting of mail.bellsouth.net for all emails. Works at home, but is not recognized anywhere else. Elsewhere I have to change the setting to the default for the particular email account I'm using. Fortunately, it's a quick switch. Entourage > Account Settings... > double click the account your using. At the bottom of the next screen is a setting labeled SMTP Server. This is what needs to be changed. The setting shown is most likely required for use at home. Write this setting down and save it. Now try this. Change the SMTP Server setting to match the receiving mail server setting above the one you wrote down. See if you can then send emails from public WiFi. (you won't be able to send at home until you change it back.) If this works, it's probably something you're going to be stuck with. But it only takes a few keystrokes to copy and paste the incoming server setting over the outgoing when you travel about. I can change mine back and forth in under 5 seconds now. Been doing it for years. If it doesn't work then we'll try something else... [/QUOTE]
