I have Outlook 2003 on my desktop at home and 2002 on my laptop while
traveling. My server is Comcast. I would strongly prefer to use
Outlook (rather than Comcast's webmail) on both computers.

I have configured Outlook on both computers to receive email. I can
also leave a copy on the server so it can be downloaded again later on
the other computer, assuring that I always have copies of all emails
no matter which computer I'm using.

Problem is I can't send from my laptop. I've tried Comcast's
instructions for configuring Outlook 2002 for use while traveling, but
it doesn't work (so far). Any suggestions?

Comcast's instructions for Outlook are incorrect. Use their instructions
for Outlook Express instead. They've changed port numbers and while they
updated the OE instructions, it doesn't look like they updated the Outlook
instructions.
