Understanding Set up iCloud email account requires more than a headline. The overview below breaks down the key facts, changes, and user impact.

The truth is not so, we can completely set up iCloud email account with other devices very easily. Here I will show you how to do it with Android and Windows Phone.

With Android

We will use an application available on most smartphones and Android tablets called "Mail". Note that this software in the name only has one Word "Mail", not Gmail or Yahoo Mail. Run the application, press the menu key and select Add Account. The picture below is illustrated by HTC, the other vendors' machines, the Mail interface will be a little different but basically the parameters and ways are still the same, don't worry.

First you need to enter your email address. When asked, select the account type POP3 / IMAP, then enter the full email address (including @ icloud. Com) and your password into the device. In the next screen:

Make sure the account type is IMAP
The Email Address LINE will be automatically filled out for you, check again for sure
In the Username LINE, enter the first part of the email address, not including icloud. Com
Password LINE ignored, no need to re-enter
IMAP server stream, enter imap. Mail. Me. Com
The Security Type LINE, select SSL, just below it is Port, enter 993

Click Next to continue. You will now be directed to the mailing protocol setup screen.

The Username and Password lines you don't need to re-enter
LINE SMTP server, enter smtp. Mail. Me. Com
LINE Security Type, select TLS, Server Port LINE enter the number 587

Continue to click Next, wait a moment for the Mail application to confirm that the server that sends the iCloud mail is usable. Then just enter the name for this email account. Click Finish Setup when done. Try sending and receiving mail. The above setting supports both push mail, ie when the message arrives, an instant message will appear.
