How do I set up a 2nd email address in iCloud? When it was mobile me, I could have 3 addresses. Can I have 2 with iCloud?

You must be talking about email aliases. Log into icloud.com with a browser, go to the email page and click the cog wheel icon in the upper right. Go to preferences>accounts. YOu can define aliases there. Note that they must now be @icloud.com named emails.

At this time you cannot reassign printer email addresses. Also, keep in mind If you delete a printer email address then you will not be able to use that same email address again for six months.

How do you set-up a hotmail email address in mail

how do you set-up a hotmail email address in mail?
I cant seem to add it. any ideas why it cant connect to the server? what server address should i be using?
regards
Brendon

Hi bmuur,
I also had the same problem.
I clicked Microsoft Exchange and kept trying to add my hotmail account that way but it kept asking for a server address for it to work.
If you go into Internet Accounts and instead of clicking Microsoft Exchange scroll down to the bottom of the list and click Add Other Account...
It will ask what sort of account you want to be created and I selected Add Mail Account and clicked create.
Enter your full name, hotmail email address and password.
I then clicked create and it worked for me.
Hopefully this solves your problem.

HT204053 How do I set up a rescue email address if I already have an Apple ID?

I have an Apple ID, but I did not set up a rescue email address. Now I need a rescue email address in order to reset my security questions/answers. How can I set up the rescue email address?

You won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions, so you will need to get them reset first - see if the instructions on this user tip helps you get them reset : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
When you can answer the questions you can then add a rescue email address for potential future use - from here :
Navigate to appleid.apple.com using your web browser.
Click "Manage your account"
When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
Click Password & Security
You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.
Once you've finished editing your rescue email address, click the Save button directly below the email field.

Why can't I set up a 2nd email address?

Ok so I followed all the help instructions for setting up a second email address and all is fine. I can send test emails to my first account and I receive them within the same inbox. But then I hit two roadblocks:
1.) When I reply to the test message it bounces back.
" (reason: 550 5.1.1 unknown or illegal alias"
2.) The password window keeps popping up. After entering my password I get "The POP server “pop-server.nyc.rr.com” rejected the password for user “(my new email account)”
What's going on???

Christina,
The password rejection could have several causes: The most common is that you're already logged into the new account - using webmail and Mail at the same time -, in which case you need to log out in order to log back into the mail account. Some providers put a block on logging in to an email account for a period of time after failed login attempts. Your Keychain may not have the right password stored for the account. Mail may not have the right password stored for the account. Your provider may allow only one account to be logged in at a time.
There's lots of room for speculation, but your best bet is to call up RoadRunner tech support and ask them to check the account and whether you are running afoul of one of the problems noted above.
The reason I said that you might have a single email mailbox with multiple aliases is this snippet from your original post: unknown or illegal alias.

How do i set up an alias email address in entourage?

How do I set up an alias .mac email address in entourage? I set it up the same as my master .mac email address, but it is not working.

There are a couple of ways of doing this. The easiest is probably to just add the secondary address in the Mail.app -> Preferences -> Accounts field.
The specifics of which vary a little based on the OS/Mail.app version you're running, but in Yosemite:
Mail -> Preferences -> Accounts
Select your iCloud account and change the 'Alias' popup menu from your iCloud address to 'custom'.
Doing this enables the 'Email Address' field. In this field you can enter the email address you want to appear in your From header.
If you want to use multiple addresses (e.g. your iCloud address and your other alias), you can enter a comma-separated list of addresses - e.g. '[email protected], [email protected]' and then you'll have a pop-up menu on each new message where you can choose the address to use for each outgoing message. You can also set the default address in Preferences -> Composing -> Send new messages from:

How do I set up a second email account in iCloud?

I want to add an additional email account to my iCloud account.

Greetings genekrebs,
You can add an email alias to your iCloud account. This allows you to have another email address that you can access using the same account. Many users find it helpful to have a "disposable" email account for various reasons. This article explains how to set it up -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Be well,

How do I set a default From email address when I write or reply to an email

I have more than one email address. I am using Windows 7. When I write an email or reply to one, Thunderbird always seem to use the same address even if is not the address that the sender of an email used. There must some setting that made this address a default. I would like to change the default. I know I can manually select the address I want, but like to have a different one for the default than the one Thunderbird is selecting.

I understand that you want each of several email accounts to act independently, such that mail for account 1 is sent and received only on that account, then account 2 likewise, etc.
For each email account, left click on the account name and then select 'View settings for this account'.
On the 'Account Settings' page, look at the 'Reply-to-Address' (should be blank) and also select the 'Manage Identities' box, which shows the default name and email address. If the default is not for that account, you can add or edit the entries and set the default.
Back on the 'Account Settings' page, select 'Outgoing Server (SMTP)' and check the user name/account there. It should be for the same account.
For each account, the other accounts should not be mentioned in any of the places identified above.

How do I set up a second email address in icloud....it opens it in Mobileme??help

I am trying to add an additional email address and when I do it opens it in mobile me.....not sure what I am doing wrong...should it be @me.com or @mac.com....I thought @mac.com but it does not acknowlege it.....I would think this would be easy....I sure it is and I am just missing something. HELP
thanks

If as your signature states you are using 10.6.8 (if it isn't correct please update it to prevent confusion) then you need to set Mail up manually to access an existing iCloud account's email - the method detailed in this page gets round Snow Leopard's tendency to dump you into a MobileMe account:
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
You cannot create a new iCloud account in Snow Leopard; you cannot create a new @mac.com address in anything. If you already have an iCloud account migrated from MobileMe, then if you had an @mac.com version of the address in that then you still have it.
If you have an iCloud account you can add up to three 'email aliases', which are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main address. These can only be @me.com addresses. You do this at http://icloud.com - please see this page:
