I have added my comcast account and verfied all my info, passowrd
etc. It's all right, but when i click "test account settings," this is
what i get:

in the Task tab
"Establish network connection – completed"
"Find outgoing mail server (smtp) – completed"
"Find incoming mail server (POP3) – completed"
"Log onto incoming mail server (POP3) – failed"
"Send test e-mail message – in progress" (just stays like this for over half
hour, computer doesn't freeze, i can go into other programs, no hour glass,
just sits there)
in the Error tab
"Log onto incoming mail server (POP3) – Outlook could not connect to the
incoming POP3 mail server because your mailbox on the server was in use"

initially i thought it wasn't a big deal, so i closed at of it and no messages
are coming in.

Comcast is my ISP so comcast.net is my homepage. I signed out of my mail,
so that when i open it says "welcome guest" and not my name.

i'm so confused!
 
Have you contacted Comcast concerning this matter?

response as unhelpful - that was accident!)
