Comcast has directions for setting Outlook Express, Outlook and Netscape
mail clients on their website. So to my knowledge they don't care.

outbound server names, and (of course) a valid username and password ...
and with the recent assimilation into the greater borg collective
initiative within comcast, you will need a valid mail account to be
established by them for you .......

Yeah actually I do, it's supposed to be what they call a support agent
that
trouble shoots your computer and can work with their techs so now they
can see
what kind of pings etc you are getting from your end as well as what
they a
are seeing on their end at least I think it's something like that. The
results
from the tests you do with their software will help them troubleshoot
better.
That's the theory anyway.......

Sounds like installing it is asking for trouble to me.

I haven't received any software, nor would I load it. I've been trying
comcast mail. I'm able to SEND vial comcast, but not RECEIVE.

BWAAAAAH. Good one.
It launches an app of a trained chimp that goes through a list of
questions like "Okay open the Control Panel, click on networking, click on
TCP/IP ...". Then it tells you to turn off your modem for 60 seconds. Then
it tells you it must be a problem with your PC, call the manufacturer.
No matter what state you were in before, when it's done you're worse off.
