I occasionally see a public-ish figure with a website where they publish their email address. This last week, saw someone who advertised their "@cox.com" address. I move way too often to have any kind of confidence in a utility email address like that.

You mean cox.net? I think cox.com is for COX employees. Comcast does the same thing with comcast.com and comcast.net

Possibly, I looked up cox.com and it redirected to https://www.cox.com/residential/home.html so I thought that might be it.

I remember seeing @cox in the email though.
