I am trying to configure Outlook 2003 for use with my Comcast email account.
I have confirmed all of my settings are correctly configured in Outlook
(POP3, mail.comcast.net as Incoming Mail Server and smtp.comcast.net as
Outgoing Mail Server) but I am still having a problem.
When I click the Test Account Settings button, I get Completed status for
everything except Log Onto Incoming Mail Server, where after about 30
seconds, I get a Failed status. The errors tab indicates the following -
Outlook could not connect to the incoming POP3 mail server because your
mailbox on the server was in use.
In Outlook, when I click Send/Receive, I get the following error:
Task 'mail.comcast.net - Receiving' reported error (0x8004210E) : 'Your
mailbox is temporarily unavailable because another e-mail message is being
delivered to it or another mail application is accessing it. The server
responded: -ERR box locked'
I have no issue at all, with the identical settings in Outlook Express.
Although Comcast provides configuration instructions for Outlook 2003, a
call to customer service yields a response that they do not support Outlook
use for their email.
Anyone have any suggestions on how I can get this to work?
