I am hoping someone can solve a problem for me.  I am 
trying to use Outlook as my email server through Comcast.  
It initially worked.  Now my emails no longer come to 
Outlook, but stay at the Comcast Webmail.  As far as I can 
tell, I have everything configured correctly in Outlook.  
Any ideas why this is not working?

Nope - have you tried looking at your account settings as laid out by 
Comcast on their website?

1.  Comcast runs your mail server.  Outlook is the client.
2.  You will need to set a defined send/receive interval for Outlook to 
automatically collect mail on startup.  Tools->Send/Receive->Send/Receive 
Settings.  Set your polling time from there.  It will force collection when 
you open.
3.  Set your mail to send automatically when collected. It is in the same 
dialog as above.

Did you ever test your settings when you stopped getting mail?  What error 
message did you get there?

I had never been to Tools->Send/Receive Settings on=20

If you define a send/receive INTERVAL, you will get an automatic polling 
when you open Outlook.

Maybe we are looking at different versions of Microsoft=20
Outlook.  I have Outlook 2002.  I went to Define=20
Send/Receive Groups, but there is nothing there about=20
intervals.  I get to mark a box for Online and Offline. =20
My choices for when Outlook is online are 1.Include this=20
group in send/receive (F9) 2. Schedule an automatic=20
send/receive every ____ minutes. 3. Perform an automatic=20
send/receive when exiting.  My choices for when Outlook is=20
offline are 1. Include this group in send/receive (F9). =20
2. Schedule and automatic send/receive every ____minutes. =20
For both online and offline I have chosen #1.

When I open Outlook no new emails appear.  When I hit the=20
F9 key, they appear.  I have found that sometimes after I=20
hit the F9 key and the new emails appear I do get an error=20
message.  Here it is:=20

Task 'mail.comcast.net - Sending' reported error=20
(0x8004210B) : 'The operation timed out waiting for a=20
response from the sending (SMTP) server. If you continue=20
to receive this message, contact your server administrator=20
or Internet service provider (ISP).'

I don't understand the error because I get all the new=20
emails.

I still think the new emails should appear when I open=20
Outlook.

Okay, I know that you know this, but what does "2. Schedule an automatic 
send/receive every ____ minutes" mean to you?  To me, it means you can set 
an INTERVAL for Outlook to send/receive - as in every 10 minutes.

I think I'm looking for a different outcome.  If I use #2=20
and set a specific number of minutes, will emails open=20
automatically when I go to Outlook?  That's what it used=20
to do.  I opened Outlook and the emails showed up right=20
away.  I don't want to wait for them.  Is there a setting=20
for that?

||
||| Maybe we are looking at different versions of Microsoft
||| Outlook.  I have Outlook 2002.  I went to Define
||| Send/Receive Groups, but there is nothing there about
||| intervals.  I get to mark a box for Online and Offline.
||| My choices for when Outlook is online are 1.Include this
||| group in send/receive (F9) 2. Schedule an automatic
||| send/receive every ____ minutes. 3. Perform an automatic
||| send/receive when exiting.  My choices for when Outlook is
||| offline are 1. Include this group in send/receive (F9).
||| 2. Schedule and automatic send/receive every ____minutes.
||| For both online and offline I have chosen #1.
|||
||| When I open Outlook no new emails appear.  When I hit the
||| F9 key, they appear.  I have found that sometimes after I
||| hit the F9 key and the new emails appear I do get an error
||| message.  Here it is:
|||
||| Task 'mail.comcast.net - Sending' reported error
||| (0x8004210B) : 'The operation timed out waiting for a
||| response from the sending (SMTP) server. If you continue

|||
