Does "on vacation' mean you're away from home? If you're away from home, how are you connecting to the Internet? I'll assume Cox doesn't like to authenticate SMTP with an "outside" IP address. I could be wrong and you'd only need to change your server settings.
Why not use Cox webmail?
let me confirm, after several different hotel stays, trying to use hotel isp smtp settings, doesn't work.
turns out the hotels had a faster connection in the business center than wifi in the room.
i use cox webmail when traveling, just don't do any banking.
i delete clutter, the remainder still on server when i get home.
hotel isp smtp settings
Okay...once again...you've piqued my curiosity. What are hotel ISP SMTP settings? How would these settings relate to Cox email service? Do hotel ISP settings involve your Cox username and password? I will, however, agree it doesn't work...nor should it work.
