What version of Entourage are you using? Recently, malformed junk mail has
exploited a bug in the Junk Mail Filter included with Entourage X and 2001
that causes the entire program to crash when Entourage attempts to download
and process the message. Microsoft has posted a fix at their web site:
<http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=837065>

Entourage 2004 includes improvements that allows it to download most of the
commonly-received junk messages that crashed earlier versions. However,
there might now be new types of messages that crash Entourage 2004 as well.

If you are crashing on receiving mail, it could be due to a corrupt
message on the server. Work through the steps on the "Crashes" page on The
Entourage Help Page to resolve the problem if turning off the Junk Mail
Filter doesn't seem to fix the problem.

This did not resolve the issue.

I've been trying to find a solution for three days.
