My company recently changed its email to an Microsoft Exchange server. I use
an email client called !ntellect made by Chaos Software. The problem I'm
having is that I can't figure out which ports to use for both incoming and
outgoing email on different computers that I use. For example, on one
computer I was able to use port 993 for to receive IMAP SSL mail but it
doesn't work on another. On one computer I was able to send email using port
143 but not on another. On another computer, though I had a "successful
connection" on a test it wouldn't download messages. Does anybody have any
idea what the possible ports are that I should be trying?

I am, by the way, running Windows XP on all the computers, three of them are
desktops and one a notebook, each of the connects to the internet through a
different ISP (one is my company's servers, one is through Road Runner,
another through Verizon.net and a third through Fairpoint.net, if any of that
makes difference.

The Exchange server administrator(s) should be able to provide the info you
need. Have you talked to them?
