Connect your Cox Email email to Claude & ChatGPT
Your cox.net address did not go away, it moved: Cox finished migrating every mailbox to Yahoo Mail in 2025, so your inbox now lives on Yahoo servers. With one Yahoo app password, anymailmcp.com puts it inside your assistant.
- IMAP
- imap.mail.yahoo.com:993
- SMTP
- smtp.mail.yahoo.com:465
- Encryption
- SSL/TLS
Cox mailboxes now run on Yahoo, which exposes CalDAV at caldav.calendar.yahoo.com, and Cox says migrated calendar events moved over. We try to discover your calendar when you connect; email works fully either way.
Before you start
What you need
Your cox.net address
Unchanged by the migration. It now signs in through Yahoo, but the address itself stays cox.net.
A Yahoo app password (required)
Yahoo does not accept your normal password over IMAP. Generate one at login.yahoo.com/account/security and paste it here instead.
Cox Email works best with a revocable app password.
