SMTP server

I have a MacBook and an iPhone and neither will let me send an emaiI from my Comcast Email address. I can receive emails just fine. All the SMTP settings seem fine. What else can I do?

user_nghv5y, hello there and thanks for reaching out. I understand the need of your Comcast email adress. Have you made sure your third-party access has been allowed? Additional to doing that, can you sign out and sign back in ensuring all settings are correct?

yes, 3rd party access is allowed and I can sign out and in w/ no problem.  I now can get emails to send from the MacBook but not from my iPhone.
