Metrocast email vis Breezeline Internet

I have had several metrocast.net email accounts for at least 15 years. I always knew, when Metrocast sold to Atlantic Broadband and eventually Breezeline that support for those accounts would end someday.

Since May until October 1, my mail clients (Outlook and Apple Mail) have asked for my password every time I try to read my mail (the password didn't "stick", as it should). Beginning on Wednesday, my mail clients fail to connect to mail.metrocast.net which has been the breezeline-supplied incoming (IMAP) and outgoing (SMTP) mail server. Following the error trail reveals the security certificate expired on May 27, 2025.

Calling Breezeline is, as always, hopeless. I have spoken to a couple of people who have basically disavowed any knowledge of metrocast.net email addresses.

Changing hundreds of email correspondents is obviously a huge PITA. Are there any ex-metrocast customers here whose metrocast.net email is still working?
