Dennis - I am still working on this issue......... the server has  
been further upgraded to a 10.20 IP address.

It turns out that they do not have IMAP on the Exchange Server and  
that they have no port 143........

They said my Mail software has to access Port 25, it is the only one.
Can I configure it to do that?

My only other option is to run Outlook in Classic, which has obvious  
disadvantages.
It does work, which at the moment is an advantage, but I would like  
to get back to using Mail with the Exchange Server.

Any suggestions as to what can be done??
