My neighbor is having the same problem also with comcast. They claim it must
be a windows problem an they can receive using the comcast.net site. I've
tried Outlook, Outlook Express and Thunderbird with the same results. What
makes this hard to understand is it's happening with two pc's in the house.
They also are using McAfee. Emails been fine for two years with comcast and
the problem just started about a week ago.

I started using comast about a month ago. Outlook worked just fine, but now
I can only receive emails and not send. Comast says they don't support
outlook. Im ususing McAfee for virus scanning v. 9.1 build 9.1.10 engine
4.4.00 dat 4.0.4724 and zonealarm (free version) as my firewall.
