Outgoing mail SMTP not working

A few days ago my wife's email stopped completely on a PC using Outlook and on her iPhone. She changed her Comcast password. The web based Comcast mail portal works fine, but both Outlook and iPhone cannot send email. 

I have tried changing ports, authentication with no success. Currently these are set to the previous settings.

I have no more ideas on what to do. Can you provide some help?

FWIW, my mail works fine on a MAC and iPhone, same settings as hers.

Did you update the password in Outlook after changing your Xfinity password, user_s6f7h7.

I updated outlook for both incoming and outgoing messages. The incoming messages started updating but I could never get the outgoing messages fixed.

we paid the local Windows guy to make the fix. I have no idea what he did different.
