Reconfiguration Faild

[NQ Suzumeh]

I changed my ISP from Verizon to Comcast. I followed the tutorial, on this
site, to reconfigure Outlook in WindowsXP to Comcast, but it doesn't work.
When opeing Outlook, I get the error message "...'mail.comcast.net' is an
invalid command." followed by the "Server error: 0x800CCC90" and "Error
Number: 0x800CCC18". What has gone wrong? Should I enter something else
aside from 'mail.comcast.net'?

Which tutorial are you referring to? What is the URL?
What is the exact error in full?
Which version of Outlook are you using?

A common cause of send/receive issues is having a virus scanner installed
which integrates itself with Outlook. Disable/uninstall this integration and
try again.

Did you set the port to 587 which Comcast uses instead of port 25 as it was on
Verizon
