e-mail

I can't send e-mail from my computer ie: pictures and documents to other
people, why? I keep getting this message:

The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'Free Price Quote Requested
for my Medications', Account: 'comcast.net', Server: 'COMCAST.NET',
Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060, Error
Number: 0x800CCC0E

Can some one please tell me why???? It's driving me crazy.

Re: e-mail

Try using the correct server names, as in these instructions (for OE, but
it's the same for WM)

Re: e-mail

As Dave mentioned, the server name is wrong, but so is the port number.
