Incoming Mail to iCloud email account is disappearing.

I am losing random incoming emails in my .mac email address. I first discovered it last week when my wife was getting emails that I was copied on that I never got. Checked inbox, trash, junk, iCloud and never could find them. Then today, just by chance, I had to verify a link via that email address. When the verification is sent, I see it hit the inbox with the new email counter and then it immediately disappears. I have disabled all my Apple Mail rules and Smart Mailboxes. As I mentioned, I have checked everywhere I could think of that it might be going. This is not my work email address but I use it for a lot of stuff. Anybody have any suggestions?

OK, mystery solved. I had my email account open on my Mac Mini in my entertainment center and it was moving these emails to the Junk account on that Mac.
Which brings up another question. Even though my email is synced through iCloud, it looks like Junk mail is stored on the computer and not synced with iCloud. Is this correct?

How do i get my icloud email account set up in mail on our new mac.

How do i set up my iCloud account on our new Mac My family have set up their Sky, gMail, & hot mails accounts really easily yet mine just woun't work keep hetting a message unable to conect to outgoing mail server.
why are 3rd party accounts so easy to set up and my apple one keeps failing Help...

Thanks - its 1 month old (max), the OSX version is 10.8.4 we already have iCloud set up on my iPhone 4S & this iMac.
I try to tick mail in the cloud menu but get an error message telling me "iCloud mail couldn't be enabled from the iCloud Preference Pane. Open mail and add iCloud account from Mail preferences"
when I do that i get the message " the icloud IMAP server p15-imap.mail.me.com is not responding. Try checking the network conection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server may be temorarily unavailable. If you continue you may not be able to recieve messgaes.
we thought the incoming server name looked odd (p15- imap.mail.me.com) but its greyed out and can't be edited even though other 3rd party accounts can.
really don't want to have to ditch the iCloud email account as i use it the most & loads of friends contact me on it
But been trying with my Dad all afternoon to fix it and are both stumped.
Any help would be really appreciated
Thanks

iCloud Mail Server Settings

Since I created an iCloud email account, nothing on my ipad2 syncs with iCloud on my PC and all of my prior information has disappeared from my gmail, notes, calendar, etc. Any ideas?

Why is it that since I created an iCloud email account (my default email client is gmail), nothing on my iPad2 syncs with iCloud on my PC? Also, all prior content in Notes, Contacts, Mail, Calendar, etc. has disappeared.

Okay, I see from the control panel for iCloud in Explorer that now I have to use Outlook as my mail client for Calendar, Mail and Notes. Why? Gmail is my client and everything used to work fine until I had to get that @icloud.com account.
Also, I see I have to use Explorer as my browser if I want to sync Bookmarks. What's wrong with Firefox?
Outlook is the only supported Mail/Contacts and Calendars client on a PC.
And once more, Gmail has no connection with iCloud, you can continu using Gmail on the web or in Mail
Why not say what you expect to happen and I'll tell you if it will.

I thought there ought to be way to add buttons from the Encore library, but I don't think we found one.
Best case: add menu from the library with buttons like what you want. Change background etc.
I like working that way rather than adding things within Encore.
Worst case: add a menu with the buttons you want; "edit in photoshop" and also "edit in photoshop" your menu; copy paste to your menu.
You can also directly open library menus; add buttons etc from the encore library folders. I would make a copy of them first. Encore imports a menu from the library to your project; it is never working on its master copy.

I just opened my mail on icloud and all messages disappeared from the last year! I have one email left in my inbox which is the most recent. I moved to icloud 2 weeks ago and it has been working fine until now. How can I retrieve old messages? Thank you.

I guess you could try but I don't believe Apple can help with activation lock issues. They may, however, be able to determine if the Apple ID belongs to one of you and reset the password for you if you can prove your identity.
You might want to try calling Apple by going to https://expresslane.apple.com; click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'. Perhaps they can help determine if it's your ID and reset the password for you (and they probably have more expertise in doing this than the Apple store).

I have deleted all emails from my ICloud email account but my manage storage still shows that the mail is using 9.7GB. Why isn't the number decreasing if all emails have been deleted?

I have deleted all emails from my ICloud email account but my manage storage still shows that the mail is using 9.7GB. Why isn't the number decreasing if all emails have been deleted?

It might be caused by storage "buffering". If so, the space will adjust automatically when another iCloud feature uses the space previously allocated to your deleted email. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4873.

HT202667 I don't know the password to my iCloud email account. My Apple and iTunes ID is not my iCloud email address. How do I find my iCloud password? I would like to add this email address to a mail app.

I Downloaded an app that keeps all address' in one place. I went to add my iCloud email and when asked for my password, nothing I tried worked. It is obviously not the same password that I use to login to my Apple or iTunes account. How do I find out my password?

Hi Kim,
The password for your iCloud account and your Apple ID are one in the same, as the iCloud email account is an alias for your Apple ID as well.
After you set up your @icloud.com email address, you can use it to sign in to iCloud. You can also sign in using the Apple ID you used to create your iCloud account.
iCloud: Set up an @icloud.com email address

So My icloud email account seems to have disappeared a few selective emails which I DID NOT delete,is that possible?

So on my icloud email account, I have a VIP folder in which I say certain email. Out of the list of email in there half of them have vanished and i DID NOT delete them. Have I been hacked? Is this normal? Can i retrieve them? What does it mean? Please help.

I have set up an iCloud email account in my name on my iPad and wish to set one up for my husband in his name. I can't seem to find how to do this. Am I only allowed one email address? If not can someone talk me through this. Thanks

I wish to set up an alias address on my iPad. My iCloud address has already been established and I can find no way to get into my account to add any alias.

You can create up to 3 alias addresses but you have to do this on icloud.com from your computer browser. This article explains how: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622. Also, incoming email to an alias address will go to your current iCloud inbox so it really isn't a separate account; just a different email address for the same account.
Each iCloud account only has a single iCloud email account. If you really want to set up another, you would need to add a secondary iCloud account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, then entering a different Apple ID to create the account. You can then turn on Mail to create the new account. Mail in secondary accounts, however, is fetch email, not push (which is only supported in the primary account).

ICloud email account and Outlook 2010 - can receive but not send email

I've set up Outlook 2010 with iCloud email account. I receive email, but cannot send. Get the message "You don't have permission..., right-click and make default..." Which I have done. Still doesn't work.
Can anyone help ?
Thanks in advance.

It is possible that your Internet service provider requires you to send on a certain port with a certain name.
The outgoing server name should start with imap...
If you have a service that requires you to send via a different server - then use that server to send, but log on to it with your usual name (for example you might send from an AT&T Yahoo! server on the ports they recommend if you have AT&T DSL and login with something like [email protected] for the outgoing server - but you can probably still set the From Address to [email protected]). Actually I haven't needed to make this change for my iCloud account, but the change I did have to make was to change the outgoing server name from p08.imap... to imap... - the iCloud client software did not install the right incoming or outgoing mail server names.
If that fails - set up a New Outlook.pst file - from the file menu.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.
