Server Ureachable & Error, 408-Request Timeout

Hi. 
I have been having difficulty with my Xfinity email. 
I keep getting a message that the "Server Unreachable" and "Error - 408 Request Timeout". 
Is this something you can correct from your end, or is there something I need to do with any settings on my computer? 
I appreciate any assistance in solving this problem. 
I don't know if it is related to how much space I have used in my email account. 
I am currently at 97% of the 10GB allowed. 
Is it possible to increase the amount of space for my email beyond the 10GB ? 
Thank you.

Hello, @pratzert thank you for reaching out over Xfinity Forums. I understand the importance of being able to access your email and send and receive communications and would definitely like to investigate further to help get this resolved. I did check and, no 10 GB storage is the highest limit allowed. It is a good idea to delete and clear any emails you no longer need.

 

When you have time I had a couple of questions that will be helpful: 

- How do you access your email through the website: https://www.xfinity.com/email
- Do you use a 3rd party client

Sorry to hear it.  This has been going on for a while for me.

I have read that changing some "ports" and clearing the cache "may" fix it.  I cleared my cache which did no good.

I have no idea how to find these "Ports" they refer too.
