Entourage 2004 - Could not retrieve mail / error -51

Using 11.2.1.. whenever I try and retrieve my POP mail, I get a "Could
not retrieve mail. Error: -51". The authenticating seems fine, the
problem appears to be when Entourage is trying to store the email.
I've tried creating a new profile, but the same error occurs. Any
ideas?

Here's what the Entourage Help Page says about error -51:

I did notice that on the Entourage support site, but found it odd
they're talking about error -50, not -51. I'll try an Office reinstall
anyway and see if that helps.

Thanks.

Incoming mail appears in Entourage mail box, but NOT in my Apple mail
box.

How do I correct this. Thanks
