My iPhone wont send email. It says the senders name is incorrect. Ive checked the settings for outgoing server and it's smtp.comcast.net. Can you help? it's driving me nuts
When you type in the smtp address in the email setup don't type in "smtp." just type in "comcast.net". This worked for me although not on a comcast.net account

I did not choose exhange. It is an outlook account. I believe I selected other and put in my comcast email information.
The problem is that it will not send mail from my iphone. It says "Cannot Send Mail The sender address was invalid.
Can you post back and let us know step by step what you have done so far. I think I posted other info before. Also check your router if your behind one and ensure that the relevant ports are allowed ( port forwarded ).
If that does not work you can create a gmail account for free and get your comcast email to forward all incoming emails to the gmail one and just access the gmail account on your iphone.
is this an email account that you have configured for an exchange email account ?
Might be worth while checking with comcast to make sure all the settings are correct ie what port to use, that smtp server address etc.
can you walk me through how you are trying to set this up ie when you click on add mail account are you selecting exchange as the type of email account or what exactly ?
