Default Can't send but can recieve from Windows Mail

I just got a new computer with Windows Vista. I set up Windows Mail, and can
recieve e-mail fine, but when I send I get the following error:
"Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for
this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of
inactivity. Subject 'Fw: February 18 Letter', Account: 'mail.comcast.net',
Server: 'smtp.comcast.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Error
Number: 0x800CCC0F"

My ISP is Comcast. I can send/recieve fine from my login on thier site. I
have cross-checked all of the server names and security settings against what
my old computer had for outlook Express, and they are the same, so I'm
stumped. Any help?

See the link for all the account settings:

See point 10, especially SSL & Port numbers.
