Error message

Received the following error message. Set up mail address on new computer
with the help of comcast, and now cannot send mail from either computer.
Some kind of conflict? Appreciate any help I can get. Thanks

Compliments of GaryV:

Comcast made some changes in their email settings. Follow these steps:

Note that the outgoing server now requires port 587 rather than port 25.
Also, "My server requires authentication" must be checked.
