tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
repeat while connection in progress

If you want, you could stick a 'delay 1' in there but that will make
Entourage unusable - no clicks, no menus, etc. Even this script will do that
if you run the script from Entourage's own script menu. In this case, you're
better off running it as an application - applet.
