Error Sending mail from Entourage

Hi, I am trying to send email from my wanadoo account in entourage using sky's smtp settings smtp.tools.sky.com but get the following error
"Entourage cannot find the server. Verify the server information is entered correctly in the Account Settings, and that your DNS settings in the Network pane of System Preferences are correct."

I can receive me wanadoo email fine but can't send.

Can anyone help.

Thanks

I don't think you can use the sky smtp server for other accounts only the sky email account i think not to sure tho.

Re: Error Sending mail from Entourage

Whilst you could get the SKY SMTP server to work it will never be completely satisfactory as it will add your sky address to your outgoing mail. Save yourself the trouble and sign up for a skyuser account. See this thread How to apply for a SkyUser SMTP account.
