Thanks for reaching out in our forums community about adding your cox dot net email address to Gmail after the transition to Yahoo.
Have you already signed in to the Yahoo mail page to complete the transition with your cox.net email address and password and accessed your inbox?
As a part of the move process, the various settings that allow a third-party email client to operate will need to be created on your part to reflect the new Yahoo settings if not using the Yahoo Mail app or direct website. See https://help.yahoo.com/kb/fix-pop-imap-client-sending-receiving-issues-sln3792.html for more information.
Please visit https://www.cox.com/residential/support/access-and-log-in-to-yahoo-mail-after-transition.html for more info about the ways you can access mail after the transition. Once you have successfully completed the mail transition, Yahoo provides all support. You can visit help.yahoo.com or call Yahoo Support at 1-866-562-7250.
** it's important to note that in every case I have encountered where any third party software requires your email username for your migrated Cox account, you will need to enter the entire Cox email address.
I hope our community members who have been successful with configuration of adding a migrated account to Gmail will chime in with any tips and tricks they have.
I did complete the transition from COX to Yahoo, I generated a new password, my emails were transferred, I've logged in and out of my Yahoo account several times. I enter the correct information in gmails set up screens (several times) and continue to get this message. In the set up screens I enter my complete cox email address, my yahoo password, and pop.mail.yahoo.com.
I need help, TIA
