Do you have the account set to connect via your local network?  I use
Outlook Express, and when I use that setting, I can't get through.  If I set
it to connect via dial-up connection, wait 'till it brings up the connect
dialog box, then hit "cancel" I magically get connected anyway.  Note that I
have _not_ mentioned this to any sys-op types.

I am using MS Outlook from behind the Intel Firewall
I tried to get to the LUGNET news server and got this error:
A dialog box pops up and says "Downloading Newsgroups from lugnet.com"
Then I get a "The connection to the server has failed" dialog box.

The details:

Server Response:
Configuration:
  Account: lugnet.com
  Server: lugnet.com
  Port: 119
  Secure(SSL): 0

Got any ideas?
