I think this should be port 110

And this one should be port 25

If your computer is on the net it has an address but this is not your
problem.
Ok what you have to do:
Open the web interface: To do so type http://localhost:8880 in you
browser (IE or Netscape or Mozilla or whatever you use)
Go to the configuration page the look at the POP3 Proxy option
For the Remote Servers: you should enter what usually you use in OE
(mail.comcast.net)
For the Spambayes Ports I usually enter 6110 (but you can use 110)
If you want to train using the smtp proxy but for now It is easier to
train using the web interface so don't touch this for now.
Leave the Remote Servers and Spambayes Ports empty.
Then in OE configure the POP server has localhost and the port should be
6110 (if you use the same as me)
Leave the smtp server like it was (i.e smtp.comcast.net with port 25)
This should work .
