Here's a step-by-step guide to setting up Comcast email in Windows Mail:

Prerequisites:

• You have a Comcast email account (e.g., @comcast.net, @xfinity.com, etc.).
• You have Windows Mail installed on your computer.
• You have the Comcast email settings and login credentials.

Step 1: Launch Windows Mail

• Open Windows Mail by searching for it in the Start menu or by navigating to the Start menu and clicking on "Windows Mail".

Step 2: Create a New Account

• In Windows Mail, click on "Accounts" in the top menu bar and select "Add account".
• Click on "Manual setup or additional server types" and then select "POP or IMAP" as the account type.

Step 3: Enter Your Comcast Email Settings

• In the "Account name" field, enter your name as you want it to appear in the "From" field of your emails.
• In the "Email address" field, enter your Comcast email address (e.g., [yourname]@comcast.net).
• In the "Username" field, enter your Comcast email address (e.g., [yourname]@comcast.net).
• In the "Password" field, enter your Comcast email password.
• In the "POP3 server" field, enter "pop.comcast.net".
• In the "SMTP server" field, enter "smtp.comcast.net".
• Leave the "Port" fields set to their default values (110 for POP3 and 587 for SMTP).
• Click "Next" to continue.

Step 4: Configure Your Account

• In the "Account options" window, select the following options:
  • "Use the same settings as my incoming mail server"
  • "Use a secure connection (SSL/TLS) when sending mail"
• Click "Next" to continue.

Step 5: Finish Setup

• In the "Account setup complete" window, click "Finish" to complete the setup process.

Step 6: Verify Your Account

That's it! You should now be able to send and receive emails using your Comcast email account in Windows Mail.
