SMTP settings Outlook comcastbiz.net
Can someone help me with the SMTP settings? I just activated an account XXXXX@XXXXX.comcastbiz.net
I found in the DNS settings of my email that the SMTP is:
Mail access type DNS name
| SMTP | smtp.w14a.comcast.net |
I've entered into my outlook outgoing smtp.w14a.comcast.net
then used my user account and password under the outgoing section in outlook. I've tried ports 465, 587 & even tried 25!
What am I doing wrong? I keep getting an error The operation timed out waiting for a response from the sending SMTP server.

Welcome RM. The SMTP Server listed in the post is the correct one. The is a short time lag between account creation and full activation on the server. Please retry the Outlook set up again and let us know if it successful.
Thank You
