After having no difficulties whatsoever with Windows Mail, I have now
experienced the following issues while trying to send mail several times this
week. The first two times, the problem seemed to have resolved itself, but
now seems permanent. Here is the message I am receiving.

The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'test', Account:
'mail.comcast.net', Server: 'smtp.comcast.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25,
Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

Comcast no longer uses port 25, they now use port 587.
