ICloud is sending emails it shouldn't be!

Hi everyone.
iCloud appears to be sending a lot of emails to people that have sent me invites through my calendar. I've only been able to find this out when the people have emailed me saying they're pretty annoyed with it, and seeing that all the links and footer in the original email says iCloud! the emails are always about events as well. This has now happened twice.
I dont have my emails or calendars synced with iCloud so I'm not sure how it's happening or how to stop this happening again. It's not fair on all the unsuspecting people getting hundreds of emails for me, or on me for all the angry replies I've been getting!
Has anyone got any ideas, or have had this happen & know how to fix this issue?

Thanks for the reply
Yeah I obviously have an iCloud account or this probably wouldn't be an issue. I've definitely got all syncing apart from contacts switched off, and the people getting the emails aren't even in my contact list they're all directly from calendar events. Nobody else could be using the same ID no, I frequently change my password & don't write them down so there wouldnt be a way that they could be using it and I live alone so noone is using my laptop other than myself either. It seems like its some kind of settings glitch but having everything switched off hasnt solved the issue :/
Also I don't use iCloud for backing up my phone I do that directly to my PC so it couldn't be that either!

  • Sharing iCal calendar on iCloud. Sending email address is the same for everyone.

    A group of us share a calendar so we all know each other's schedules. The problem is when sending or accepting meeting invitations, it always comes from the email address that is associated with the iCloud account. Can we change it for each system? Each local system should have iCal associated with their email address, not the base one.

    It won't let me change my Apple ID email address it says "Email address is already verified for another Apple ID." when I try to change my email adress. The thing is, I have no other apple id's that I know of...Any help?

  • Adding Notes to iCloud Via Sending Email

    Hello All,
    I use alot of notes apps, and every single one of them has the option to add a note via sending the note to a custom email address instead of opening the app. Still I couldn't find such functionality regarding iCloud notes ! Does anyone have any idea or a workarround to apply this on iCloud notes ?

    The built in Notes app, like the other built in apps is fairly basic. It doesn't have that feature.

  • HT1430 Can anyone help me set up sending email from my o2 email account to my new iPhone 5?  I think I maybe shouldn't have clicked the 'merge' option for iCloud when I set up the first email account (though am not sure whether that's relevant).  Thanks,

    Can anyone help me set up sending email from my o2 email account, for my new iphone?

    Additonally, at this point I really want to talk to someone who cares about how a customer like I might feel in such a situation and when I call corporate would like to talk to someone who is interested in hearing my input as it really sucks to think I really don't feel like going to the store anymore and would rather just buy stuff on amazon or newegg these days instead;/  When I know how much i used to enjoy going into the store and getting friendly with kind staff who worked with me to get the best deal on the items I got--perhaps this was because it was at a more desperate time when Best Buys fate as a company was more precarious prior to price matching taking origin.  Also, on an aside, would like to add that obviously there is always the one or two people who go out of their way to make sure you have an excellent expeirenece so I am not trying to make any sweeping generalizations here.  In fact, I find the forum contributors to be among the most kind and helpful, but that might be because they don't have to deal with the now seemingly dreaded "pricematch" epidemic;D

  • Cannot send email from mail after moving to iCloud

    I have just moved to iCloud and now I cannot send email but can still receive email

    Hi Judy,
    Problem solved.
    Go into Mail/Acounts and delete you iCloud account.
    Now add a new account and type in your details for MobileMe/iCloud.
    It should now work. O noticed the default server name is different.
    Hope this helps.
    Yours,
    Charlie

  • Cannot send email from icloud account from mac

    cannot send email from icloud account from mac running 10.8.2

    The SMTP server you are using with Wi-Fi would be the outgoing server of your internet service provider... this is likely why that's working.
    SMTP servers specific to a ISP would not work on the 3G network. You would probably need another SMTP server. One from your cell provider?

  • Still cannot send email from icloud .me address

    hi. does anybody knows why i cannot send email from my ipad (ios 5.0.1) icloud me.com account? i can recieve but i cannot send. on my mac (lion) it works perfectly. the message i get is "the sender address .mac.com was rejected by the server". mac.com ?? but i use my me.com address. any ideas pls?
    thank you

    I have been having the same problems for the last two days now.  It won't let me send, but it will let me save it to my drafts folder.  I even tried opening the e-mail form my iPhone 5 and it won't let me send it there either.  The last two times i ended up copying the contents from my failed e-mail on my phone and pasting that into a new e-mail and that works.  I normally use the icloud web app to reply to e-mails when i'm at work (using win 7) and it is very frustrating. 

  • Can not send email from Mac, iPhone, or iPad using mail using iCloud.

    I can send email from the icloud web page but I get error messages that the icloud outgoing server is not recongized when I send email from my iphone, ipad and Mac mail.  I can receive icloud email okay on all devices.  I have manully setup a icloud server per instructions on icloud support page for mail's outgoing server name.  It still is not recongized.

    I found a work around that works.   Got to Settings...Icloud....account......advanced....outgoing mail server.....
    Add an "other" server.
    Host Name p01-smtp.mail.me.com
    Put in your me.com email address as username and your Apple ID password
    SSL is on
    Authentication is password
    Server port 587
    This worked for me.....I will use this until the bug is fixed.     Don't make this server your primary.   Leave it in "on" status in the other category.
    Good luck

  • We purchased a new iPad2 and registered it using a 'new' iCloud email/ID. We are unable to send email from the iPad and iPhone. The error is: Cannot send mail. The user name or password for iCloud is incorrect.

    We purchased a new iPad2 and registered it using a 'new' iCloud email/ID. We are unable to send email from the iPad and iPhone. The error is:>> Cannot send mail. The user name or password for iCloud is incorrect.

    About ~20 hours later, this ended up solving itself. We can send email using the '.icloud' email from both the iPad and iPhone.  Advise would be 'wait' before you start seeking alteranatives like yahoo, hotmail, etc.  This definitely is a convenient way to keep all your 'cloud' information in a centralized place, including the common email...

  • Can't send email from iCloud accounts on Mac

    A few hours ago I couldn't login and receive email to my icloud accounts this appears to have been fixed but I still cant send email. I've checked all passwords in preferences.
    I can login to icloud via the browser and send email Ok.
    I can send email from my iCloud accounts on my iPhone.
    But can't send mail using Sparrow or Mac Mail on the desktop.
    This all seems to have happened since I installed the latest security update.

    Using smtp.mail.me.com - also tried smtp.me.com
    SSL yes
    port 587
    SMTP Authentification Yes
    Security SLS/TLS - also tried STARTTLS
    User full **@me.com email address - also tried user name without @me.com
    I have spoken to apple support this afternoon and we tried the variations shown above.
    Support told me to wait for a day and try again!
    After the iCloud authentication problem last night I changed all my passwords I wonder if there is an SMTP problem at me.com perhaps not reading the updated passwords?
    I'll try and use the old passwords later.

  • Cannot send emails from iCloud account on any of my devices.

    Hi all,
    Since last week, my iCloud account has seemed to lose the ability to send emails.
    I am using:
    10.10.02 Yosemite on Macbook pro 17"
    iOS 8.1.3 iPhone 5S
    iOS 8.1.2 iPad 3rd Gen
    This issue did not happen all at once, it has taken several days for the issue to spread from my iPad, to Mac and now today, my iPhone.
    I have removed the iCloud account completely from all devices and deleted the data, reinstalled.
    I have found some guidance around Apple Mail and SMPTE settings on the Mac, but to no avail.
    I can send emails when using iCloud.com but this is useless when on the go.
    Anyone else got any ideas or come across this issue?
    The system service status says that it is all good.
    Thanks
    Keith

  • HT1277 Cannot send email from iCloud Mac Yosamite 10.10.1

    I have not been able to send email from my account for weeks, off and on.
    I am using Safari Browser
    Mac Book Pro 17
    Yosamite 10.10.1

    You should be able to send email from Safari, however I do wonder why you wish to do this and whether there is something inherently wrong with using your mail app and your iCloud address.

  • I can get my email from the iCloud website, but my password won't work on my home computer to receive and send email

    When I open my email on my home computer, I can't receive or send email that is @mac based. I get a message that my passwork is invalid.  When I go to the iCloud website, my password works just fine.  Any clues?

    Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.
