outlook 2003 SMTP SETTINGS

I am  on a Windows 10 platform. I am using POP3 suceessfully (port 995). In attempting to send email I get a message:


Task 'Home - Sending' reported error (0x800CCC7D) : 'Your outgoing (SMTP) server does not support SSL-secured connections. If SSL-secured connections have worked in the past, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).'

 

I am using port 587 for SMTP.COMCAST.NET

 

I have check marked this server requires SSL authentication. I also tried entering user ID and password on the tab for OUTGOING SERVER.

 

I used this email client successfully in the past. I bought a new computer and had to reload eveything. Now I am stuck. Thanks.
