Cox email moving to Yahoo.

I called it! I heard this rumor a couple months ago and the moderators denied it. Get ready! https://www.cox.com/residential/support/coxnet-email-transitioning-to-yahoo.html PS. Thanks for the head...

I understand your concern. Although we have not yet been apprised of all features and changes regarding the Yahoo transition, we have not been made aware of any plans for new address creation with the Cox.net domain. Here is more information from the URL: 

 

Add a new email account  -  As of August 15, 2019, we no longer offer the ability for new and existing Cox Internet customers to create new Cox Email accounts. While this is not needed to access your transitioned email, if you wish to create an entirely new standalone Yahoo account, not associated with your Cox information, you can do so at login.yahoo.com, by clicking Create an Account.

    So Cox is exiting as a email provider all together. Good to know. Thanks.

    PS. When did you guys find out about this and why did you not let the forum know?
