Authentication Failure on .mac

I have just started to use Entourage 2004. I connected to my .mac account
and receive mail without problem. When I try to send messages I get an
error saying that Entourage does not support the authentication methods.

Any ideas?

Any ideas?

Entourage v.X and 2004 work fine with .Mac. In my account settings for .Mac,
my SMTP server is set to "smtp.mac.com", and the only "advanced sending
options" I've got set are "SMTP server requires authentication" and "Use
same settings as receiving mail server".

My IMAP account ID is just "chrisridd", the IMAP server is "mail.mac.com",
my password is what it is :) and I don't have any "advanced receiving
options" set.

Hopefully there's enough info there for you to fix your setup :)

Cheers,

Chris
