Will I lose my Cox Email address if I move or transfer service? No, if you transfer your service you can keep your email account. However, if you disconnect your service, you will lose your email account after the 90-day grace period has ended.

How to Configure Gmail to Pull Mail from cox.net

Go to the Cox mail folder you want to export and Control-click it and select Export Mailbox and choose a destination folder on your computer. It will create a folder with your destination folder with “foldername. mbox”. Within the folder will be an mbox folder (data) and table of contents file.

Its free, better, and faster then anything from your ISP, no matter who it is. You could even set up a vacation message with Cox to tell people of your new email and automatically forward it. And then if you should ever change ISP again, you won’t have to worry about your email. Email is great.

I’ve was told by a cox rep via live chat, that all Cox can do is transfer ALL email accounts from one cox internet service account, to another, AS LONG AS the new account doesn’t have a primary email account created.

Sure, some internet service providers (or I.S.P.s) — like Comcast and AT — allow you to keep your email address when you leave, but others — like Spectrum — will disconnect your email service as soon as you jump ship.

Keeping your email address when you switch broadband providers. Not all providers will allow you to keep your email address once you switch. For example, Virgin Media will delete your email account once you’ve left. However, a number of other providers allow you to retain access to your email address for a monthly fee.

What if I’m No Longer a Cox Customer?

1. In your email client program, export the files you want to keep to a local file.
2. Set up your new email account from your new provider in your email client program.
3. To gain access to your saved Cox Email content, import the local file to your new account.

“Upon disconnection of your Cox High Speed Internet Service, Cox will delete your email address, mailbox, all email messages, and the associated content from each Cox email address associated with your account within 90 days of disconnection.”

I’m not sure what your time table is but you can go into http://webmail.cox.net and click Settings then Forwarding to setup a rule to forward all your emails to a new account.  Note that this still will only work while your email account is active so if you’re planning on closing your account soon you might as well start now.

Yes, you may create one primary ID and up to nine secondary users IDs. However, a new Cox Email address can not be assigned to these additional user IDs. Secondary user IDs will continue to have separate sign-in credentials than the primary user ID. Does this impact the way I sign-in to My Account or Cox mobile apps?

The only way to potentially keep an email address active would be by transferring the account (s) to someone else’s that you know and would agree to have them transferred over.
