You can find the correct URL for this setting in HostPilot > MS Exchange Server 2003 > Setup or MyMailboxManage r > Setup page - Click on the link in the text that says"For Advanced users: You can click here for the information on how to configure Outlook manually".

I would ask your network admin to help you out, there is probably a policy in place that is prohibiting you from adding extra ids and the port numbers might be blocked. Plus they are using a proxy, you need to configure the proxy in order to get access to the external info on the internet.

Good Luck,
