Is there a version of Mail which will work with my eMac OS10.4 and which allows use of port 465 instead of port 25?

Our email provider (Comcast) has notified us that for security reasons they intend to no longer support Port 25 and will begin using Port 465 instead. The mail program on my eMac, Mail 2.1.3, does not offer Port 465. Is there a mail program for the eMac whjich will support it? Thanks, JT

Emac, Mac OS X (10.4.11)

Hello, you can set port 465 in Mail in 10.4.11

Mail>Preferences>Accounts>highlight that account>Account information tab>Outgoing Mail Server(SMTP)>Edit Server.
