Default Outlook 2003 can't send email on Comcast

Perhaps if you state what you DO use for their settings, someone can help
you out. I, for one, use Comcast without error and have since 2000.

After furious head scratching, asked:

| For the past three years, I have used Outlook 2003 as my email client.
| I have one copy on my home machine and one copy on my portable. The
| home machine works great and can send and receive on Comcast high
| speed cable. But when I use my portable when traveling, Outlook 2003
| is not able to send email; it can receive but not send. I have seen
| tens of threads reporting the same problem over the years but no one
| has ever posted the definitive solution or even explanation.
|
| I've followed the Comcast FAQ's to the letter, tried numerous
| variations such as changing ports (587 is one a Comcast FAQ suggested)
| and other variations suggested in posts on various boards. Still no
| solution. The same two error messages always come back:
|
| "...The server was found but no response..."
|
| "..Outlook could not connect to the outgoing mail server..."
|
| I currently use Comcast webmail when on the road, but I sure would
| like to be able to us Outlook when traveling. Any ideas?
