Hi,

You can try fiddling with the mailbox path in the advanced tab (last  
one) of the mailbox settings?
Right click on the mailbox in the left pane of Mail.app and Edit it,  
then click into Account (second from left) and Advanced (rightmost).

You can check your ports and SSL there as well as trying to adjust the  
prefix. Mine whine a bunch about the prefix being INBOX. for some of  
my hosted mail, but it usually works.

If that doesn't get it, let us know what version of Mail.app and  
whatever else you have there and we'll dig deeper.

hth,
adric
