Error Message -3280 'Connection failed'

[Howard Novak]

I have three mailboxes. Two send and receive. The third (primary) can send,
but receives the referenced error message when it tries to receive.

In the 'Progress' window I can see that there are 67 messages waiting to be
viewed, but then this message appears.

My ISP says it is on my end.

I have deleted and recreated the mailbox several times in the last 24 hours
to no avail.. Any ideas?

See the Errors page on the Entourage Help Page for some tips:
<http://www.entourage.mvps.org/errors.html#Anchor-error16999>

Most likely it's a corrupt message on the server. Use the method there to
delete the oldest message, and you should be able to receive mail in
Entourage.
