Earthlink mail support told me "You can do a CRAM-MD5 login which will
encrypt your password during authentication."

How would I do this in Entourage?

In your account setup, enable secure connections. Entourage is apparently
capable of using CRAM-MD5.

Where is this "enable secure connections" option?

I enabled "SMTP service requires secure connection" for sending but then I
get an error.

I enabled "Always use secure connection" for receiving but that doesn't work
either.

Try the SSL checkbox.

I'm just stabbing in the dark here because I can't seem to get to
EarthLink's official instructions.

Skip it then. Thanks for trying.

Have you talked to EarthLink? What instructions are they giving you for
account setup? EarthLink is Apple's preferred ISP and Entourage is a popular
program. They should have instructions.
