What options do you have for encryption method? For outgoing mail, can you choose StarTLS or something similar? I think Cox uses TLS 1.2 now. Also, you don't want SPA but instead use these instructions;
- Open your Outlook account.
- From the Tools menu, choose Account Settings.
- Select your email account from the list, then click Change.
- On the Change E-mail Settings window, click More Settings.
- Click the Outgoing Server tab, then check the My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication option.
