Hi all,

I need some help with a few mac os x and entourage vX 10.1.6.

I often have a -3168 error code, and I can't find what this error mean, it
seems in relation with the network or the connection maintained by
entourage since every time I have this error, it is followed by many IN-USE
errors from my ISP so I have to wait after the lock file to be
deleted...quite painfull

It's a POP3 account and this error occurred on more than one mac I have,
and yet the most of them don't have any errors and office work fine as
well...

If someone can help :)
What in the world the -3168 error mean ??


Thanks.

Gaël.

Error -3168 is a 'kOTStateChangeErr' - an error encountered in the Open
Transport kernel. 'State Change Error' is some sort of network related error
- don't ask me what!

Probably not a lot you can do about his, if it is accompanied by other
network errors. It's probably a network resource related issue.
