Experience I'm employed as a Systems Engineering Manager at All Covered with a specialty in Macintosh technologies. I'm an Apple Certified System Administrator (ACSA) through 10.4 and have the lower certs as well (ACTC for 10.1 - 10.5), an Apple Certified Help Desk Specialist for 10.3 (ACHDS) and a member of the Apple Consultants Network, as well as an Apple Product Professional for 2002-2007. I have an MCP cert. from MS as well... I've worked with the Macintosh Operating system and various machines since my first PowerMac 8500 running Mac OS 7.5.3 in 1996. I support my friends and family in keeping their Macs healthy and upgraded. Now I use a MacBook Pro for work and have a Flat Screen iMac (intel 20" core 2 duo) for home use. I went to school for multimedia and design, but this knowledge-base is fading, though I primarily geek out with workstation deployment and server management. I'm sort of a "Mac of all trades" :)
Most important: I've also worked on PCs for a number of years with various flavors of Windows(95,98,NT4,2000,2000Server,2K3Server,SBS 2K3Server,Mil,XPHome,XPPro, Vista Business), but I've always used the Mac as my platform of preference. Publications http://www.macwindows.com : VPNs and Outlook

Expert: Ed Dyer Date: 5/29/2008 Subject: Apple Mail and Entourage do not work in Mac OS 10.4.11
Question Apple Mail and Entourage do not work in Mac OS 10.4.11 (in a Macbook bought in December 2006). The people in charge of my network have installed Eudora, which works well. But I prefer to continue with either Mail or Entourage, because I am used to them. The administrators have assisted me and they say that there is a problem with those specific softwares. In fact, I can use Internet normally.
In fact, I cannot even create a new account to receive Gmail (but I had the account of my workplace before and it worked once).
The error message is more or less that the time to connect has been exceeded . . . to the server 200.55.208.141 through port" ("Se ha excedido el tiempo de conexión con el servidor “200.55.208.141” a través del puerto 0."). BUT THE PORT IN THE CONFIGURATION OF THE ACCOUNT IS NOT 0, but 25. Why does it try to use 0?
Thanks.

Puede que haya un problema con el servidor de correo o con la red. Compruebe los ajustes de la cuenta “Andes-Pop” o inténtelo de nuevo.
Se ha encontrado el siguiente error de servidor: Se ha excedido el tiempo de conexión con el servidor “200.55.208.141” a través del puerto 0.
Answer Cristobal,
I'm not sure I understand your question exactly. I really think your IT support would be the best people to answer this.
Your specific error relates to the port it's trying to use to send mail; you should change the account settings to mimic Eudora.
