    had already done your suggestions. Worked with 2 different MS tech people; chat and phone. Comes down to security issues with yahoo and the port numbers supplied online are not working. Now need to connect with Yahoo Customer Service.

    Unfortunately, you haven't provided any information about your problem. All we know is that you can't do something.

    From Comcast: Set up your Xfinity Email address with an email program

    Note: Xfinity Email is moving to Yahoo Mail.

    Sorry to hear that you’re having trouble adding your Comcast email to Outlook. First, confirm that you can sign in to your email at Xfinity Email. Then ensure third-party access is enabled.

    After that, try adding the account to Outlook again. If automatic setup fails, select the manual/advanced setup option, choose IMAP, and add your server settings. If it still fails, please share the exact error message.
