Cant Send Mail

This may be a simple one, but I filled out my contacts "windows contacts" ,
now I would like to send from there using my comcast account. I followed all
instructions, but mail will not send and I receive an error
The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'wewewewewewewff', Account:
'Wicked Mail', Server: 'comcast.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL):
No, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
Am I just doing somthing wrong?

The server name is incorrect. The outgoing server should be named
smtp.comcast.net instead of just "comcast.net". Also, it is better to use
port 587, with authentication. For a guide to the correct settings see:

The server name appears to be incorrect...

What are the Comcast Mail Server Settings?
The Comcast Mail server settings are as follows:

Outgoing mail (SMTP): smtp.comcast.net
Incoming mail (POP3): mail.comcast.net

Ok, That helped, I changed and fixed all. My test email sent fine. I then
tried an email to a few recipients, ander BCC and received this error. I hid
email listed. I am still searching through comcast help also.

The message could not be sent. The authentication setting might not be
correct for your outgoing e-mail [SMTP] server. For help solving this
problem, go to Help, search for "Troubleshoot Windows Mail", and read the
"I'm having problems sending e-mail" section. If you need help determining
the proper server settings, please contact your e-mail service provider.

The rejected e-mail address was, '**********@COMCAST.NET'. Subject 'Wicked
Holiday Specials!', Account: 'Wicked Mail', Server: 'smtp.comcast.net',
Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '550 5.1.1 Not our Customer', Port: 587,
Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 550, Error Number: 0x800CCC79

Go to Tools, Accounts, select the account, Properties,
Servers, make sure that "My server requires authentication" is
checked. If it was already checked: Can you send to other recipients?
Perhaps this one recipient changed his email address.
