I get this message when I try to send email from my laptop when I'm at school. It says that it can't send mail because the server doesn't support secure connections. It works when I send emails from home. Do I need to change the settings on my browser?

Uncheck SMTP secure connections for this account when accessing at school.
See these two scripts for an easy way to do this.

I don't really understand the information in that link. I might just not be able to use Entourage then since I can't figure this out.

The link points to scripts that will help you set up different account to
access your account that is determined by location.

You might be better off with an IMAP account as all mail is stored on the
server and probably wouldn't involve the change you are required to do now.
