This is not a bug. The solution was suggested as:
smtp.comcast.net:587

This works as suggested.

  comcast
  Date: Wed, 08 Apr 2009 21:16:04 -0000


  ** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

  When sending outgoing mail to comcast.net the port must be 597. There
  is
  no place in evolution to specify such, therefor the outgoing mail is
  not
  sent.
  +
  + (sentinel72: This is also a problem when trying to use
  + host.name.com:port#. Connection times out.)
