Can't send email through some wifi

I use Entourage for email, and have found when I travel that I can get
online through T-Mobile and other wireless networks, but can only
receive mail, not send it. I get the error message:
"Authentication failed because Entourage doesn't support any of the
available authentication methods."
When I went to the Mactopia site for help, I found a topic that said,
"You receive an error message when you connect to POP3 and SMTP servers
that use NTLM version 1 in Entourage 2004 for Mac," and when I went to
the link, it just said:
"This problem occurs when the Post Office Protocol version 3 (POP3)
server or the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server uses NTLM
version 1 authentication. Entourage 2004 for Mac no longer supports
NTLM version 1 authentication.

Note Earlier versions of MSN, The Microsoft Network, POP3 servers or
SMTP servers may still use NTLM version 1 authentication.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft
products that are listed in the "Applies to" section."

It's nice that Microsoft has confirmed that it is a problem, but is
there a way to send email on POP3 servers that apparently use NTLM
version 1 authentication???

In spite of what is said on the MS support sites, try it with
authentication set on and off in the 'advanced sending options' of the
account preferences.

As an alternative, look to using Postfix Enabler to turn on the mail server
in OS X 10.3.x - you can then send mail by using 'localhost' as the server
address in the sending mail server part of the account settings. This will
work in almost all locations, except possibly where the ISP is hijacking
port 25 traffic.

Just wanted to say "Thanks" to Barry Wainwright. The first suggestion
above worked like a charm!

You're welcome :)

And thank you for your feedback - too often we never find out what worked
and what didn't!
