can't utilize email notification
Good morning,
For the record I am using a HP 64-bitPavilion p7-1157c AMD A6-3600 APU w/Radeon ™ HD Graphics, 2.10GHz, 8 GBs of Memory, Win 7 Pro SP1, IE 9, Comodo Internet Security Suite, SuperAntiSpyware Pro, Trojan Hunter, Malwarebytes Anti Malware, Spyware Blaster and Windows Defender.
I just updated yesterday to TI13 and TI Plus Pack13 after being notified it was available when I went to backup my main drive to an external drive.
In the past I have always utilized the option of sending an email to myself when any backup feature had been accomplished and this always happened without fail. However, yesterday when I attempted to set up this option I kept falling on my face.
I utilize Comcast email and I used the same information as I had in the past but I kept getting the message that the test mail could not be send.
I tried reading possible causes but it is too much for my 70-year-old brain housing to understand.
Does anyone have any ideas how to get this feature to work?
Thanks and regards,

Hi GroverH,
Glad to see you are still here for those in need like myself. Before I tried everything you suggested I figured I would query Comcast and make sure the information (servers and Ports) I was using actually were the right ones.
Well ... to make a long story short ... I noticed for the outgoing setting they used SMTP (notice the all caps) instead of the lower case - smtp. I then tried sending a test email with ythe upper case SMTP from TI 2013 to myself and it worked like a charm.
So ... all is well that ends well.
Thanks and regards,
