Can't use email on iPhone

I am successfully using one of my e-mail addresses on my iPhone.  I want to add another.  I know that I have to select "Allow access to my Xfinity connect email through third-party programs" in my email security settings.  The problem is, it won't stay checked.  I check it, switch to another setting, come back, and it's unchecked again.  On the email I'm using successfully on my iphone, it stays checked.  How do I get this setting to stay so I can use this email address on my phone's app?  I have wasted hours trying to get support for this simple question.  And I've tried to make this setting in several browsers with the same results.

Took a while and a few people, but this is resolved.  Comcast had to change something on their end.  It wasn't something I could fix myself.
