This just started the other day after having Vista for over a year. I can
receive email but can't send. Anyone know what I can do? Thanks, Mark

What you can do is post any error messages you get, plus any other details
about the problem...most of us are terrible mind readers.

Also try to move all messages in your Outbox to the Drafts Folder,
or delete them.  Let us know if any refuse to do either.

I don't have any problem moving the messages from my out box, or even
deleting them.

Thanks, Mark

Comcast has changed the outgoing port number, apparently without
notifying affected users. In the Advanced tab of that account's properties,
change port 25 to 587. Then go to the Servers tab and make sure that
"My server requires authentication" is checked.
