Whaling attempt?

i have received three messages telling me the following:

This is our third attempt to contact you as we noticed that you still have not updated your Email Server settings. We urge you to make changes to all your devices now as Verizon is beginning to implement changes that may cause interruption to your service if you neglect to make the required modifications.

Please use our quick guided setup at verizon.com/emailassist or the quick overview below to manually make changes:

Server

Current Setting

New Setting

SSL Enabled

Port

POP3 Server

incoming.verizon.net

pop.verizon.net

YES

995

SMTP Server

outgoing.verizon.net

smtp.verizon.net

YES

Is this legitimate?

Yes it is.  The settings are the same as those on on this Verizon web page.
