Just changed to Comcast for internet and email. We have been using Outlook 2007 with prior email account using the folders (i.e. Inbox, Deleted Items, Sent, etc) in Outlook>Personal Folders. Followed the steps provided by Comcast to set up Comcast account in Outlook. Have no problem sending from Outlook but no emails were coming into Outlook>Personal Folder>Inbox. Determined that a new folder on same level as Outlook Personal Folder was created named for Comcast Email. Within that Folder are 'New' Inbox and Junk E-mail folders. All the incoming mail from Comcast is going to a 'New' Inbox under a Comcast Email Folder. And when we delete an email in 'New Inbox' it just sits there with a line thru it - doesn't move to Deleted Items under Outlook>Personal Folders. Is there any way to Comcast emails to go into the 'Old' Inbox under Personal Folders (which is showing as the default file in Tools>Account Settings>Data Files)?
If you use have an account at Comcast and you want to configure your mail client (Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird etc.) to send emails, you simply need to enter Comcast’s SMTP settings in its server configuration field:
Advanced Server Setup. If you want to change your email account, click More Settings to open the Internet E-mail Settings dialog box. The Advanced tab in the Internet Email Settings dialog box lets you set the POP3 and the SMTP server ports, define whether the server requires an encrypted channel, and define server time-out settings and delivery settings. In this article, you’ll find the Comcast mail settings for Android, iPhone & Outlook. Besides an overview with the IMAP, SMTP and POP3 server mail settings for your Comcast email on the above-mentioned devices.
Here are Comcast’s SMTP settings:
WD External Hard Drives (USB) Personally I have 3 WD Elements USB Drives 2 x 1.5TB an a 1TB The 1TB I have been using for over a year and a half now, and been giving it a really hard time, and it's never faulted, and the 2 x 1.5TB over a year on both an there fine. Mac hard drive won39t mount.
- Comcast SMTP server name: smtp.comcast.net
- Comcast SMTP username: your Comcast email address

Now you’re ready to deliver your emails. Then you can choose your security and authentication options: for further information please check our article about SMTP configuration.

There’s an important issue to be underlined, however: if you plan to do bulk email marketing, you should opt for a professional SMTP service.
In fact, a normal outbound service like Comcast’s SMTP server puts a limit to the number of people you can send the same email to (in order to deter spammers), and to the number of single emails you can send per day. Also, working with shared IPs, it cannot guarantee a good deliverability for your emails (that is, a number of your messages will simply rejected by antispam filters and get lost without you even knowing).
