Re: [PLUG] kmail issue


Do you have to send your username (maybe in the form of your e-mail address) and password to Comcast's SMTP server?

Hello all,

Can anyone help with a kmail issue. I've never used it before.
I'm trying to get away from evolution...too big! I use comcast
as my ISP so my incoming mail is POP3 <mail.comcast.net>.
I receive mail just fine. I can't send mail though. When I send
mail I get an error that reads:
 Sending failed:
 One of the recipiens was not accepted.
 The server responded: "5.7.1 user@host is required"
 The message will stay in the 'outbox' folder until you either
 fix the problem (e.g. a broken address) or remove the
 message from the 'outbox' folder.
 The following transport protocol was used:
 smtp.comcast.net

I'm using RH 9.0 with 2.4.19 kernel and KDE, and I'm RTFM as I
send this. Was hoping for a quick fix!
