I set up my windows mail account and have it working,but it removed all my messages from my comcast webmail inbox and won't let any new in. I would like to use both e-mail accounts or know how to change back to comcast webmail.

If you don't want to use Windows Mail to receive your email, just don't start the program up, and then only use your web browser to check, receive and send your email.
However, the problem is that when you set up Windows Mail, you needed to check to leave a copy of mail on the server so that you could see the mail in both Windows Mail and on the comcast.net webmail page. Open Windows Mail, click on Tools, then click on Accounts. Highlight the account you want to deal with and click on Properties. Then, click on the Advanced tab, and at the bottom, click in the box next to "Leave a copy of messages on server". Click Apply, click OK, click Close.
If you don't want Windows Mail to check for mail immediately when the program starts [which is probably why you aren't seeing any "new" mail on the webmail page - because Windows Mail downloads it before you're checking webmail] click on Tools, click on Options, and in the General tab make sure there isn't a check mark next to "Send and receive messages at startup", Click Apply, if you've made a change, then click OK.
