Cox's email platform was recently upgraded, I'd check to see if you're using TLS instead of the SSL 3.0 and below. I would third the recommendation to get off of Cox's email platform, and I'm writing this sitting in Cox's Atlanta NOC. From what I've seen, our IT/Data side is moving away from anything customer facing that isn't automated and revenue friendly - e-mail is a part of that bit bucket.
