I am currently using only mail.twc.com for my emails. I keep seeing references to Roadrunner which is also owned by Spectrum. What is the difference ? Can I use both ? Would Rr be better instead ?

I have Roadrunner. I had Brighthouse for ISP and when I originally got the service Roadrunner was my e-mail server. Since Spectrum took over they just continued with Roadrunner. Yours apparently was Time Warner and thus the "twc.com" e-mail server. There is nothing gained by changing to a different e-mail server and you can't change it without Spectrum doing it anyway and you would lose your current e-mail address and get a new one.

I set up a client's PC for Spectrum service a while back and the users e-mail server is "Brighthouse.com".
