Bruce Hagen:
Thanks for your help ALWAYS. I really appreciate your help.

This morning, I finally called and asked my ISP, Comcast. The tech. who is
handling 'security' told me over the phone, ... along with your suggestion,
'from 25 to 587,' it's also needed to put 'check' mark, Authorization by
clicking 'Servers' at the top. Now, everything is fine and I immediately
e-mailed few e-mails that went into 'Outbox.' It's a such relief!

Thanks again, Bruce H.

Change your SMTP port from 25 to 587.

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