Jay,.
Yes, Port 25 was disabled and my husband "wingspan2" thought that
might be the problem as he stated in the previous
posting asking for help with our "Outgoing" mail. BUT.........what
he didn't mention is this whole problem started when our main computer
did an "automatic" update for SeaMonkey's 2.0.14. update. Now.....I
believe there is actually NOTHING wrong with the port/outgoing server
because I'm using it right now on my MacBook. My MacBook is using a
Router connection from our "main" computer which has the problem.
Yet... I can log in, send, receive mails with no problem at all for
his mail account....Keep in mind I "Did Not" except SeaMonkey's update
2.0.14 (thank goodness!) So....this tells me that SM update did
something to our computer and I would like it if you or some tech
person could contact us and help fix this problem... I hope that I
don't get the same responce from SM as we did from Comcast.
Thanks blurosemarie
P.S. Sorry to be rude, but this was working fine until the update
from SM.
