| Vista 6.0 32-bit | Windows Mail - Can receive but can not send email I've spent the last couple hours searching through the forum for help and did not find anything that worked. Perhaps someone can help point me in the right direction... Thanks for your help!!! Here's my error when sending email: An unknown error has occurred. Subject 'Test Email...', Account: 'mail.comcast.net', Server: 'smtp.comcast.net', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '421 Cannot connect to SMTP server 76.96.62.117 (76.96.62.117:25), connect error 10060', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 421, Error Number: 0x800CCC67 I've double checked Comcast's email settings, the reboot didn't work either. |

We have an excellent tutorial on Windows Mail that may give you some assistance. Here's the link: Windows Mail problems Let us know if that works for you. |

| Vista 6.0 32-bit | Re: Windows Mail - Can receive but can not send email .Joe I had already been through the tutorial several times, but went through one more time. Decided to change over to Windows Live Mail. Just finished the install. Same error... I assume I've now eliminated a corrupted Windows Mail program as the answer. Sure like the look of Live... s'f |
