Outgoing e-mail server on Android
My outgoing Cox e-mail quit working on my android phone today. I have changed nothing-my outgoing smtp server is TLS port 465. Port 587 will not work either

Hello, please ensure that your operating systems are up-to-date. As of 04/24/19, all email sent from a Cox Email address must use TLS 1.0 security encryption or higher. As a result, Cox no longer supports sending email through email clients using SSL security encryption version 3.0 or older. SSL / TLS encrypts information from potential thieves as it is sent from one location to another, such as when sending email messages. Choosing to encrypt with SSL / TLS provides added security to email. -Kevin M. Cox Support Forum Moderator

My SENT email from my device are getting stuck in the Outbox. (receiving email is fine)
Are these the correct settings?
INCOMING SERVER: IMAP.cox.net
SECURITY TYPE: SSL
PORT: 993
IMAP path prefix OPTIONAL
OUTGOING SERVER: smtp.cox.net
SECURITY TYPE: TLS
PORT: 587 (I tired 487, 465,, too = no luck)
