Can’t send email from my iphone

I can receive but can’t send email from my comcast email account on my iphone.  I have checked all the normal things suggested… smtp.comcast.net.  The port is correct as 587.  I can use the account from the internet correctly and it will send.   But the iPhone part is not allowing sending.

Try using Port 465; SSL/TLS; and OAuth2 with your full email address.

user_bwp4ja Hi there! Thank you so much for using our Forums and for letting us know about the email issues from your device. Have you attempted to remove the email account and add it again?

I had the same issue on my IPHONE. I had tried removing the Comcast.net email then adding the account back in to no avail. Turning OFF wifi calling didn't help. What helped was to turn my IPHONE wifi OFF completely. I could then add a new Comcast email account. Once the account was added, I turned the wifi back ON and it all worked. Hope this helps.
