Connect your Comcast Xfinity email to Claude & ChatGPT
Xfinity email is plain IMAP with one famous quirk: a "third-party access" switch that is off by default. Flip it, and anymailmcp.com connects your comcast.net inbox to your assistant. Comcast is also moving every comcast.net mailbox to Yahoo Mail through 2026; once yours has moved, it connects with Yahoo settings instead.

What you need
Check whether your mailbox moved to Yahoo
Comcast has been inviting comcast.net users to move to Yahoo Mail since June 2025, rolling through 2026, and the move cannot be undone. If you accepted it, the steps below do not apply: sign in once at login.yahoo.com with your comcast.net address, create a Yahoo app password, and connect with imap.mail.yahoo.com and smtp.mail.yahoo.com.
Not moved yet: turn on third-party access
In Xfinity webmail: Settings, Security, then check the box under "Third Party Access Security". Without it, every mail app is rejected.
Your comcast.net address and password
The full comcast.net address and the password you use on xfinity.com. No app password needed once the switch is on.
Comcast Xfinity works best with a revocable app password.
