Sending/forwarding Messages to my .msn account

[Larry D Gibbs]

I am a Comcast customer and use my comcast e-mail account for somethings. I
also have a .msn account that I like to forward some of my messages to for
holding purposes. I used to be able to do this but for about a week or so
when I forward message from my computer to my .msn account they never
arrive. Does anyone else have this problem and can it be fixed? I am able to
receive messages from out side sources to both of my accounts. The only
problem I have is either send or forwarding message from my comcast account
from my home computer.

Do they leave your Outbox?

Does anyone else have this problem
and can it be fixed? I am able to receive messages from out side
sources to both of my accounts. The only problem I have is either
send or forwarding message from my comcast account from my home
computer.

What exactly are the symptoms and what happened between when it worked and
now?

 

[Larry D Gibbs]

They are leaving my outbox but not arriving at me .msn inbox. Everything
seems to be the same with the exception of me not receiving the messages. I
receive messages in both accounts from outside sources. If I send a test
message from my .msn account to my comcast account I get it but if I send a
test message from my comcast account to my msn account I don't get it. If I
send from my comcast account to other people they get the message.

Have you checked the MSN mailbox's junk mail folder to make sure they're not
being filtered out?

 

[Larry D Gibbs]

Yes, they are not there either

Well, if you see messages leaving the Outbox but never arriving at the
intended destination and there are no error messages, the next option yuou
have is to see if they're making it to your SMTP server. Enable diagnostic
logging and see if anything unusual appears. If you can't decode what you
see, post it here and someone more familiar with the log contents can help.

I sent an e-mail to my msn account directly from the Comcast.net e-mail site
and it arrived right on time so my problem has to be with my outlook 2003
setup in some way.

Here is the log after I sent a message to (e-mail address removed). The message
never arrived.

This line proves that the problem is not Outlook. Comcast's server accepted
the message from Outlook. Outlook's done with it and no longer has any
control. Your problem is on Comcast's end and this proves it, no matter how
much they may wish to deny it.
