My iPhone no longer receives emails and it says - "Comcast is currently unavailable" when I try to update or re-set my Comcast account

In the last 3 days my iPhone 14ProMax stopped receiving emails.

I had changed my password on my laptop (mac) so I went into my cell phone to update the Comcast email password. When I hit next I got a message saying, "Comcast is currently unavailable". After receiving this message several times I then deleted my email from my phone and re-set it up and got the same message. If I continue to hit next I get the option to save the account, but it may not be able to send or receive emails. I tried this and none of my folders loaded nor did any emails. I at one point was able to see that everything was still on the server it just wasn't loading into the Mail app. Comcast email is working just fine on my laptop.

Since the problem started I did go through the most recent update on my iPhone and that made no difference.

I do not have a VPN

I restarted my phone and tried again, still not working.

user_t1bpn7 Are you having any issues with checking your email on a different device or web browser besides the iPhone?
