Trouble Opening E-mails in MS-Outlook

S

SBJ

I have Windows XP Home and Office Standard.
I have a DSL provider (Comcast) and would like to get my
e-mails in Microsoft Outlook. I can send e-mails from
Outlook.

Comcast gave me these settings:

Incoming server - mail.comcast.net, outgoing -
smtp.comcast.net, account name - tripletts2 w/o
@comcast.net.

In Outlook I did the following:

Change Your Server Connection Method
Tools, E-mail Accounts, View or change existing e-mail
accounts, Next, Select the account [there were 2 -
mail.comcast.net & my name - I tried doing this 2 times -
using each, without success], Change, More Settings,
Connection, Connect using my local area network (LAN),
Test Settings [all were w/green check marks, confirmation
e-mail appeared in my Comcast messages], Close, Next,
Finish.

My e-mails don't appear in the Outlook inbox. Does anyone
know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.
