- my "send" (smtp) server is comcast and their address is smtp.comcast.net. I tried changing my "receiving" server to "pop.mail.yahoo.com" from "pop.mail.com" (which has always been my setting) The change did not work I got the same "connection to the server has failed" message.Jun 22, 2009
- !. Yes, I am using Yahoo Mail.2. My internet provider is Comcast. All my server settings were correct. The problem (fixed) lay elsewhere.
3. I apologize for not being aware of the narrow definition of "help" on FIXYA and I have changed the rating.
Thank you at least taking the time to try to help me.

You have posted in the Yahoo mail category, are you even using Yahoo mail?
