I hope someone can help me.    I switched over to a MAC 6 months ago and bought outlook for it.  I have a cox email address and outlook wont save my password.   I get an error message somedays every 5 minutes and some days only a few times a day.  The error message from Cox my internet provider is...

"The server for account "cox" returned the error "Connection idle for too long".   Would you like to reenter your password.

 I reenter my password but get this message over and over.  I created a gmail address and dont have this problem with that acct on outlook.   I have tons of clients using my cox email so I dont want to give up that email address.  Any help would be appreciated as Cox tells me it outlooks problem, outlook tells me its cox's problem and Apple says its outlooks problem.
