message can not be sent. the authentication setting might not be correct for
your computer. I can send all my emails except to one person, who also uses
comcast as the server. I've called comcast before and they deny they are the
problem even though my settings are spot on with what comcast wants.

Make sure that you do not have a typing error in that particular email
address?
 
Please include the COMPLETE error message, especially the part that
looks like this:
The rejected e-mail address was '(e-mail address removed)'. Subject 'Test',
Account: 'mail.comcast.net', Server: 'smtp.comcast.net', Protocol: SMTP,
Server Response: '553 Recipient email address invalid', Port: 25, Secure(SSL):
No, Server Error: 553, Error Number: 0x800CCC78
 
Tools, Accounts, select your mail account, Properties, Servers,
"My server requires authentication."
If you need more help, post your complete error message.
 
I get this message...
-- The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'Emailing: Exhibit 1',
Account: 'Charter.net', Server: 'Charter.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25,
Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

Email scanning should be turned off in any anti-virus. Also exclude EML
files from the scan. It provides no protection not provided by the regular
resident protection.
Besides that, McAfee,Trend and Norton are not compatible with Windows Mail
and Outlook Express and should be uninstalled. The latest version of
Trend's anti-virus seems to be causing problems too.
