at WI-FI locations, E-mail - can receive, but not send

Am using Thunderbird, XP, and ISP Comcast. Works fine at my home wireless
network, but not at remote wi-fi sites. Outgoing server is default
smtp.comcast.net,port 587. Server settings: POP mail server,
mail.comcast.net Port 110. Have turned off PC-cillin outgoing mail check.
Suggestions? Thanks, HarryB

set up smtp for SSL on port 465.

is for outlook express, but you should be able to setup Thunderbird
with these settings.

You may need to enable secure server option in the mail client. I believe it
needs to login with the same credentials on the outgoing mail sever to send
mail out when you are not connected to Comcast.
