Problems with Comcast Account Settings

If you are not able to send or receive emails in your Comcast account settings or experiencing some other problem with your Comcast account settings, it can be occurring because of using older email clients such as Mac Mail, Outlook Express, Outlook etc. Comcast has drawn its support for the use of Port 25 for sending mail in order to enhance security and prevent spam in a user account. Below we have mentioned the correct configuration of email settings to Comcast email. Follow this guide to appropriately configure and update your Comcast email account to fix the problems.

 Guide to Configure Email Settings with Comcast Account Settings

1.) You will need to make the following changes in order to configure an email client and be able to send and receive email:

  • Under Incoming Mail Server Name – Enter comcast.net
  • Under Incoming Mail Server Port Number

Recommended – Set the value to 993 and select SSL

Only if Needed – Set the value to 143 and select SSL

  • Under Outgoing Mail Server Name – Enter comcast.net
  • Under Outgoing Mail Server Port Number

Recommended – Enter the value 587 with SMTP

Only if Needed – Enter the value 465 with SMTPS

  • SSL Encryption – Tick the box
  • Authentication – Enter your Xfinity username and password

Note: Although you can also use POP to retrieve email, but for the best experience, features and for using the Comcast email account on multiple devices, it is suggested to use IMAP as it lets you keep all your email synchronized in all the devices which is not possible with POP.

However, if you still wish to use POP for certain reasons, you will need the following information:

  • Under Incoming Mail Server Name – Enter comcast.net
  • Under Incoming Mail Server Port Number – Enter value 995 for POP with SSL or Enter value 110 for POP3 without SSL.
