Default comcast e-mail

Norton and McAfee are the worst AV programs you can use with Outlook Express. They both screw it up.

I suggest AVG Free:

or:

When prompted, choose Custom Installation and *uncheck* e-mail scanning when you see the option.

Avast and Nod32 are also good programs, but I have not used them yet myself.

Norton, and McAfee, products are not Outlook Express friendly, and I don't know of any OE-MVP that would recommend using them.

But, check your settings. I believe this is the correct way:

This is confusing...

I am receiving some e-mail from the outside, however, when I send myself an e-mail to my comcast account via of my comcast account, it does not come through.

Also, when I send an e-mail via another account I have to my comcast e-mail, it does not go through, either. The one I sent via comcast to a comcast account did not show up in my sent items either.

I did just re-install Macafee onto my laptop. I had Norton, but it expired.

I am thinking it has something to so with my settings, but I still get some outside e-mail.
