Comcast changed from port 25 to 587 some time ago. Guess it just caught up
to your area.

How do I set up/configure Outlook Express for Comcast email?

-I have been using OE6 and it suddenly quit working properly. I can
receive
e-mails but when I send i get an error.
Port 25, Socket error 10060 and 0x800cccoe...I appears by my research that
port 25 is being blocked. I am using comcast and can send e-mail if I go
to
their site. Why would they block that port? Who Comcast? Is anyone else
having that problem in this area? What can I do to fix this problem?-
