I am receiving these errors. I can still get my mail on the comcast web site.

An unknown error has occurred. Subject 'help', Account: 'mail.comcast.net',
Server: 'smtp.comcast.net', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '421 avast!
detected a collision with Norton Antivirus(processes:WinMail.exe[1],
ccsvchst.exe[49])', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 421, Error
Number: 0x800CCC67

You're running both Avast and Norton antivirus? That's a no-no. Remove
Norton, as it causes problems with Windows Mail. Continue to use Avast, but
turn off email scanning in it.
 
Thanks for posting. However, hopes this helps others. Don't have to remove anything. I'm running Avast and Nortons 360. Read this post because I have Avast, 360, Lavasoft, Spybot. Couldn't get my mail to send out on Comcast, but mail was coming in; even from my own server in cyberspace. So, I re- read your advice. Thought a minute about the actual message popping up from Avast, then opened up Outlook, got the email outgoing port number (25). Then opened up Avast, removed port 25 from being scanned and now my email is working as designed.

How about that? Thanks for posting this info. Helped me think this through. I could not have gotten this far, this fast without you.
