The port should be 587 for comncast outgoing mail and 110 for incoming mail according to this LINK Click on the "How do I setu or configure OE for emails" link on the right side
Have you loaded something recently that could have messed with your ports? Yahoo or Google tool bar or other similar app?
If it's changesd one acc settings it may have done so on all...
Maybe comcast are blocking the mailserver port. Have you asked them?
great news... glad its sorted
so does that make for a "fixya" ?
erm no, actually I thought you said that port 25 is blocked by ISP and the error is related to port 25 so I assume that is the issue? Are you trying to send email using port 25? If not please calrify the situation so I can try to assist further

I am not concerned about the Comcast email account. I run a business from home and cannot send email using my own settings for my domain names.
I have been using an IP address in my account settings, both SMTP and POP3 to send an receive email. Now all of a sudden I can no longer send email using my own domain name.
Yes, I just got off the phone with the Security Dept of Comcast and they told me they are blocking me from using port 25 regardless of if I am using my own domains to send email. Their answer was they detected unusual activity coming from my PC. LOL! I am a network engineer and a web developer, and I am confident there is nothing being sent out on my system that I don't know about.
Read my friend before you speak. You are just trying to rack up brownie points rather then actually trying to figure out what is going on.
