You must have your SMTP server set to your home ISP in your mail account
(Tools -> Accounts). Many (most?) ISPs will only accept mail sent from
within their own network, so if you try to send mail through their SMTP
servers while traveling they will reject it. This probably has nothing to
do with Entourage, and would happen with any mail program.

There are a couple of options you can try:

1) See if your ISP has an option for Authenticated SMTP -- where you
provide your username/password when sending email. You can find this on
their website or by calling them. Then you need to configure your Entourage
account to make this work.

2) Get a gmail account, or other free email service that you can use for
sending. Gmail is nice because you can configure it to allow you to send
"From" different addresses (most free email servers only let you send as,
e.g., luser@xxxxxxxxxxx)

3) Get a paid email account for sending from anywhere, such as AuthSMTP.com

Having a crazy time with Entourage in that I can't reply to emails, or
send emails from any location other than at home. Current error message
is 17099. Other time it states "not authorized". Any help is much
appreciated.
