I just updated to Ice Cream Sandwich as well and have the same problem. I get a connection fail and some note that a "certificate" is needed. Anyone know what the certificate is and who you get it from?

Same issue with ICS upgrade. Removing the @comcast.net didn't work for me, however, changing the incoming port from the default 110 to the alternate 995 did. Simply choose settings for your account and change.

I found another solution. Delete the previous email account from your phone. Download and activate the Xfinity App. Then set up your email as before. All works as before in the email mode while the Xfinity app is as though you have logged in via the website.
