Recently we have been unable to send emails to addresses ending with embarqmail.com, centurylink.net, and aol.com from Windows Live Mail. Comcast is our isp, and we can send emails from the Comcast email, but not WLM. This is definitely a WLM problem, not a Comcast issue. Have others had this problem, have you solved it?
What you need to do is is manually add the account you need to find out there server ports and everything i have added them below.
