Check your e-mail server settings Thunderbird with what Cox says they should be.

Thunderbird menu: Tools: Account Settings

Cox Email Server Settings

"The mail server sent an incorrect greeting". That means that the e-mail server did not respond properly. If the e-mail server settings you have in Thunderbird are correct, then this is an issue with Cox.

Please contact them.
