On rare occassion, I check Comcast mail via the Web interface. I put in
comcast.net, get redirected to an xfinity host, then have to enable lots
of javascript, click on the MAIL icon, then wait for the javascript to
run and load mail, etc. At some point in there I have to provide
credentials.

Has anyone ever found any joy in getting through the steps without all
the redirects, or with fewer? Some straightforward like mail.comcast.net
doesn't work.

I use <https://connect.xfinity.com/appsuite/>. It opens to a log
in screen, and once you log in it opens your Inbox.
