Hi, @skys4324

Thank you for reaching out. I hope you are doing well. I see you aren't email to send emails directly on our site or via Outlook. I understand you receive emails with no issues, but you aren't able to send them. When you try, do you get any non-deliverable notifications? Does it happen with any email you try to connect with?

Does this same error populate on both our site and outlet? You can also visit this link https://spa.xfinity.com/postmaster?faq=avoid-blocks-ipv4 to review if any of these apply. @skys4324

[Edited: "Personal Information] email, both on the site and all other methods. I reviewed the avoid blocks page and it seems like my email might be blocked. How do I resolve that?

Trying to say that it only happens when I use the email associated with comcast.net and it happens with all platforms.

If you feel you email is blocked or if you think its another Comcast email that is blocked, you could reach out to our Customer Security Assurance Team to have them review this further. You can also report the email here https://spa.xfinity.com/report

My husband and I are having a similar issue as of this evening.  I can send email on my laptop signed into comcast but I cannot send email from iphone thru the mail app.  It says unable to send mail and that there is an issue with the mail server.

Good evening @soleary22, and thank you for reaching out to our Community Forums with your email issues. We're sorry to hear that you are having trouble sending emails from your iPhone. To confirm, is it to a specific email address or all outgoing emails? May I also confirm that your iPhone is up to date?

Having the same issues. This has been going on a few days. I am unable to reply to message. I get the following error message:

"The connection to remote server imap-central.ge.xfinity.com was refused or timed out while attempting to connect. Please try again later."

Hi there, @user_hlcld4 I'm very sorry for the trouble you are having with your email service, I understand how frustrating this is for you. Have you tried clearing out your browser's cache/browsing history? When you have done that, close out the browser and re-start it in a fresh session. If that doesn't do it, then try using a different browser. Let me know if this helps!-Richard

I don't think that @user_hlcld4 is having the problem via browser but using a third party program.

I have the same problem on sending email using Apple Mail as described in other threads.  Problem started with changing password as requested by comcast a few days ago.  I updated passwords and receive emails OK, but can not send.  This is true for Mac and iPhones.  Some people in other (closed) threads have been fixed but don't know how.  I use POP

user_49t987 Have you tried sending an email through our website? Do you see the same issue or is this only affecting your Apple Mail third party email client?
