Comcast's email servers are POP3, the server name is mail.comcast.net. You can use port 110 for plaintext email, or 995 with SSL for encrypted email (recommended).
For sending mail, the server smtp.comcast.net. You can use port 25, 465, or 587. With 587, you must have authentication, and I would recommend TLS (may be referred to simply as SSL as with many clients).

That can't be done. Well, it's theoretically possible to do it, but I've never heard of a POP client that has that capability. On the other hand, many POP clients can delete an email from the server when the email gets deleted in the client, should that help. But, I dunno if your phone can be configured to do that.
