Cannot send from Outlook on laptop
 

Have been trying to set up Outlook on my new laptop. I'm sure everything is properly configured for gmail. When I run the settings self-test, it will do everything but send the test message. It says my e-mail address field is incorrect, but it isn't. I've contacted Comcast. They had no clue.

I'm thinking this may have to do with wireless? I have a Netgear router. A secured connection. But it doesn't even work when I have the laptop docked.

Thoughts?

If your new laptop is XP try turing off the firewall and testing your email

The odds are you haven't configured the gmail smtp server as specified at :
