Recently, when I click on Get Messages to download email from Comcast server I receive error messages. One error shows "Login to server mail.comcast.net with username X?X?X failed. Retry, Enter New Password, Cancel".. Second error shows "Sending of passwowrd for user X?X?X did not succeed. Mail server mail.comcast.net responded: [AUTH] Temporarily blacklisted IP Address - try again later" I spoke with Comcast tech support and they, of course, gave me the standard line that I was using a 3rd Party App for email and they could not support that and I could instead use the email on line at my Comcast account site utilizing the antiquated Comcast mail options. They finally attempted to help and after they researched the issue they suggested I change the Server Name setting form 'MAIL.COMCAST.NET' to 'IMAP.COMCAST.NET' and changed port from 995 to 993. I tried making those changes and was not receiving the error statements. But I also was not seeing ANY email downloaded or message indicating TBird was login in the Comcast server. I then changed the Server Name back to 'MAIL.COMCAST.NET' and port back to 995. TBird then correctly downloaded dozens of emails. When I tried to same thing the next day, though, the error problems had returned. Finally, I was looking at Tools>Account Settings and selected Add-ons and Themes in left pane. I noticed Bitdefender Toolbar was enabled under Extensions so I tried switching it to disabled. Voila, the program would once again download emails. But a short time later another try to Get Messages resulted in the errors again. Can anyone answer with changes to connect properly to Comcast for email? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
