During a troubleshooting episode to confirm forwarding from gmail accounts, the email password was reset by the provider Spectrum. Email works properly on a Windows desktop computer but from the time the reset was accomplished have been unable to receive emails on iPad or iPhone. Have entered the new password in mail settings but get the following message: The IMAP server is not responding. Check your network connection and that you have entered the correct information in the "Incoming Mail Server". The password and settings are correct for the mail account. Checked the password saved in settings/password for the email account and found a different password. Tried that password but same message. Am I missing something?
