This is strange. Let's test in a new User first.

Testing in a new User will quickly tell you if the problem is system wide or
if it¹s your User¹s folder that contains the problem.

Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Accounts. Switch to the
New User by logging out/in or use Fast User Switching.

Open Entourage in the new User. Enter the Account info and set "leave on
server" under the Options tab for the test. Does the problem go away?

If yes, then we need to test your Identity in the new User. Switch back to
your regular User and move your "Main Identity" folder to Shared. Switch to
the new User and drag from Shared (it actually copies) your Identity to the
Office 2008 Identities folder. You will need to rename the new Main Identity
if you want to keep it or it will overwrite that Identity.

Does the problem exist in the old Identity in the new User?

If the problem existed in the new User, then it's at the system level or
it's coming from your ISP.

Let me know what you find.
