400 Bad request error message from Xfinity comcast email account

When I try to open my comcast.net email account with Microsoft EDGE browser as usual, I am now getting a 400 error, "your browser sent an invalid request".  From alot of googling yesterday, I've already tried clearing cache and cookies on this browser, removing a possibly corrupt extension I found while following other suggestions, multiple reboots after these efforts, to no avail. I can seem to continue to do everything else I normally do with this browser, just can't open my email account now. Help.

@XfinityJustinC​  Justin, I responded to your suggestions through Email [edit all caps] (Comcast community mailer address) but suspect perhaps you never received as I did not get further response from you.  Just "for the record", an update (originally transmitted by email to you):

1) A different browser ( my backup is Firefox [edit all caps]) Does [edit all caps] allow me to open my xfinity comcast email account just fine! 
2) an "InPrivate"(incognito) window Does [edit all caps] allow me to open/access my xfinity comcast email account in my go to browser Microsoft Edge [edit all caps]. 
3) my apple products (iphone/ipad) Do [edit all caps] allow me to open my outlook IMAP as currently configured.  I do not access emails on these devices through xfinity app. 
However, The Next Day This Issue Resolved [edit all caps] randomly!  Someone else on this thread posted the same issue here , says contacted Comcast and was told by Comcast it would.  Interesting, but not really satisfactory.  My email account was out of commission through Edge ( my preferred Browser) for an entire day.
 
If you have any other observations or comments, please share.  Thanks again for such a prompt initial response to my outreach.

Hello, @ladonnam1. Thank you for reaching out over Xfinity Forums for support, you have contacted the right place for assitance with your email conern. I definitely understand the importance of having access to your email communications, and want to help ensure you can access those. 

 

I appreciate you providing all the details steps you have already attempted, you have done a lot of the steps I would have asked if you have tried. I did have a couple other questions to see if these help:

 

- Have you attempted to open an incognito window to access the email?

 

- Have you tried a different browser like Chrome?

 

- Are you able to access your email via the Xfinity App?
