I've downloaded the "fixes" you've recommended but I still get this error
message: The host 'smtp.comcast.net' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the server name correctly.

I also have message stuck in my out box.I have downloaded 941090 both the 32bit and the 64bit and when I try to run either one i get a pop-up saying that the updates does not apply to my system. I also cannot send and receive mail through windows mail. When i click on the tab to send or receive mail I get an error message stating that the pop3 server could not be found. I check the server and it was still there. Any ideas? -- jefferson newman |

I don't understand what that means, sorry. Also, I should tell you that I've
been using Windows Mail for the last 2 months without any trouble - this only started yesterday. Why the sudden problem?

I thought I had it resolved by changing the comcast server thing to 587 but
it's not working now. I am more than a little frustrated at this point.
