Do you get an error message when you try to send? If so,
right-click on your error message, copy, then paste it into a reply here.
We can't do much troubleshooting without the complete error message.

Send yourself a test message. An error message will appear.
Post the message, WORD by WORD.

The first error is due to using an incorrect SMTP port.
Comcast has switched to port 587 instead of port 25 for SMTP.
See:
http://www.comcast.com/Customers/FAQ/FaqDetails.ashx?Id=2288

For the second error, do the following:
Go to Tools, Accounts, select that mail account, Properties, Servers.
Make sure that "Log on using Secure Password Authentication" is not checked.
Also make sure that "My server requires authentication" is checked.
