    Go to tools>accounts>select your account>properties>server tab.
    And enter the following to the respective server address lines:

    Comcast incoming mail server: mail.comcast.net
    Comcast outgoing mail server: smtp.comcast.net

    You may need to change the outgoing Port number from 25, to 465 on the
    Advanced tab of your account?
    Try sending a mail to yourself prior to doing that.

    I should have said change the port number to 587, sorry.
