The connection to the server has failed.

Protocol: SMTP
Port: 25
Secure(SSL): No

Did you not receive an email from Comcast stating that you need to switch ports? Something about port 25 not being safe. Give them a call (or maybe even surf through their site for instructions on how to change to the correct port).

I did it about a month ago or so with my Mozilla Thunderbird Mail app that's routed through Comcast.

Interesting. I'm using port 110 myself with STARTTLS connection security.

When I set up my Dell PC with Live Mail Cox Internet had a page on their website showing what domain name and port to use for both incoming and outgoing mail. I'm sure Comcast has a similar page. I know for Cox the ports were different depending upon whether or not you checked the SSL box on Live Mail setup.
