I am having the same problem! My account has been working fine and yesterday
and today I started getting this same error message...help!!!
 
Yes, of course.....I've been useing it for the past year and it just stopped
working from yesterday.
 
Although we have three people posting to the same thread, you
all have very different send failures.

@rcdarter: Comcast has been dropping support for port 25.
Follow these instructions:
http://www.comcast.com/Customers/FAQ/FaqDetails.ashx?Id=2288

Note that the outgoing server now requires port 587 rather than port 25.
Also, "My server requires authentication" must be checked.
Although those instructions were written for Outlook Express,
Windows Mail uses the same settings.
 
@Kelli_H:
It is very doubtful that your error message is exactly the same.
Right-click on your error message, copy, then paste it into a reply here.
We can't do much troubleshooting without the complete error message.
 
"Of course"? How would I know that?

Disable email scanning by your anti-virus application. It provides no
additional protection, it may be causing the problem, and even Symantec says
it's not necessary:

<QP>
Disabling Email Scanning does not leave you unprotected against viruses that
are distributed as email attachments. Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect scans
incoming files as they are saved to your hard drive, including email and
email attachments. Email Scanning is just another layer on top of this. To
make sure that Auto-Protect is providing the maximum protection, keep
Auto-Protect enabled and run LiveUpdate regularly to ensure that you have
the most recent virus definitions.

Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email

To avoid confusion, please begin a new thread about your specific problems.
State your IE version and full Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3; Vista SP2)
in your first post.
