I use a hosted Exchange account through cbeyond. After upgrading to Entourage Web Services I can no longer connect to Exchange. It was working fine before. Enabling logging shows this (I've obscured my email address with XXX):
[ 45331us, d 8us] Entourage Exchange Auto Configure: Querying <https://autodiscover.eaglesm.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml>
[ 45331us, d 0us] Entourage Exchange Auto Configure: Error code: -3176

[ 45332us, d 0us] Entourage Exchange Auto Configure: === Failed to retrieve autodiscover settings for XXX...@eaglesm.com
I manually configured my account so I don't see why it is trying to use AutoDiscover. I don't need it to do that since I have my settings given to me by Cbeyond. So basically although I have all of the correct Exchange settings I can no longer use Entourage for my email because it's trying to use this AutoDiscover. How can I prevent this?
thanks

I think Pawan's correct about what's happening but thought I'd point out
that the AutoDiscover feature serves another purpose. Not only does it
help you discover your server but it will also help you stay connected
if your account changes servers. This is a feature that Entourage never
had before.

If anyone wants to look at the Cbeyond support entry for setting up Entourage it is linked here (hopefully the link works):
To access emails in EWS I believe you have to configure Entourage with
webmail.cbeyondonline.net/ews/exchange.asmx (but please check the EWS URL
from your provider).
