So after reading on the site, I thought maybe I would change up my mail client to Mail from Entourage. So I setup Mail exactly the way Entourage was setup (with account settings) and now from Mail I can't send anything and am having problems receiving emails. With Entourage I could send email from inside and received email with no problem. What am I doing wrong? Is there something with Mail that I am overlooking? I mean everything is setup the exact same way in Mail and as in Entourage.

More info required to troubleshoot this one. What type of account is it? POP, IMAP or Exchange? Is it with an ISP, a web company like yahoo or gmail or is it a company account from your job? Permanent sending problems will probably be something to do with your outbound mailserver settings and authentication for it.
An intermittent problem with receiving is trickier. Got any odd port settings or firewalls running?
