My imap password

OK, I only have a comcast.net email account and when asked for two step verification, it tells me I can’t use a Comcast’s email. Hum?

Thank you for your reply back, @user_rfiu4w To resolve the "cannot use a Comcast email" error during two-step verification, you must add a non-Comcast email (e.g., Gmail, Yahoo) or a mobile number to your Xfinity account settings. Xfinity requires a backup contact method for security. 

@XfinityRichard​ so you are telling me I need to delete my email account on my iPad and put it back in. I’m still getting the cannot get message on my phone even though I now get emails.

Thank you, @user_rfiu4w You can delete the account.

Delete Account: Go to Settings > Mail > Accounts, tap on your Xfinity/Comcast account, and tap Delete Account.
Add Account Back: Tap Add Account, select Other, and select Add Mail Account.
Enter Credentials: Use your current Xfinity username and password.
Allow Access: Ensure 3rd-party access is allowed in your Xfinity security settings. 

OK, I will try this…however I believe my user name is my email, which is @comcast.net…will that works. Perhaps my used name is my name, I don’t know without looking?
