Try changing the SMTP server to smtp.comcast.net tools>accounts>your
account>server tab.

I assume your Internet connection is being obtained from Comcast.
In order to get this to work, make the following changes:
1. In Windows Mail go to Tools, Accounts, select the Gina ODS account,
click Properties, Servers. Change the name of the outgoing (SMTP)
server to smtp.comcast.net. Do not change the incoming server. Also,
make sure that the "My server requires authentication" option is checked.
Click the adjacent "Settings" button. Select "Log on using"
then enter your Comcast username and password. Click OK.
2. Go to the Advanced tab and verify that the port number for the
outgoing (SMTP) server is still 587. Click OK. Try sending.

"Unknown error" can be caused by interference from an
antivirus program. Which antivirus are you running?
As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus should be turned off,
although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects.
In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled.
Email scanning in any antivirus should be disabled, for reasons
explained here:
http://thundercloud.net/infoave/tutorials/email-scanning/index.htm
If no improvement after disabling email scanning, consider upgrading
to Windows Live Mail, because it is less prone to suffering bad effects
from overly intrusive antivirus programs:

My isp is o2
1. In Windows Mail go to Tools, Accounts, select your Back2backprotection
mail account, click Properties, Servers. Change the name of the outgoing
(SMTP) server to smtp.o2.co.uk. Do not change the incoming server. Also,
make sure that the "My server requires authentication" option is checked.
Click the adjacent "Settings" button. Select "Log on using"
then enter your username@@o2.co.uk email address, and the associated
password. Click OK.
5. Go to the Advanced tab and change the port number for the
outgoing (SMTP) server from 26 to 25. Do not change anything else.
Click OK. Try sending.

If I change the settings as you suggested, when I send emails will they
still show the mail from back2backprotection?
Thanks

I am having similar issues to those in this thread with Windows mail in
Vista, I'm pretty sure I've entered all the correct POP3 server and SMTP
server names correctly and even changed the port number from 25 to 587
but I still can't sent an email. Anybody have any ideas?

Your AVG antivirus was probably installed with its default
install option, which installs an email scanning module.
Just disabling its email scanning is not a sufficient remedy.
Uninstall AVG, then reinstall, but select 'custom' install, which
then allows you to unselect installing its troublesome email
scanning module. Even better, replace it with the free Microsoft
security program:
http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials
That should clear your receive error. If you still get a send error,
please respond back. If the send error message is different,
post it with your reply.
