Mail program with yahoo account. Comcast as my internet provider. Can't send mail.

I use the Mail program with my yahoo account on Mac OSX. I have Comcast as my internet provider. Can't seem to send mail from the Mail program. Comcast can't figure it out. Any ideas??

Does anyone know the actual settings I should have in Mail Preferneces and what the incoming and outgoing ports should be?

Thanks.
