iCloud Mail server settings

  • iCloud Mail uses the IMAP and SMTP standards supported by most modern email client apps. iCloud Mail does not support POP.
  • If you set up an account using iCloud System Preferences or macOS Mail in 10.7.4 or later, you won’t see these settings because they’re automatically configured.
  • Refer to your email client app’s documentation for information about how to use these settings.

IMAP information for the incoming iCloud Mail server

  • Server name: imap.mail.me.com
  • SSL Required: Yes
    If you see an error message when using SSL, try using TLS instead.
  • Port: 993
  • Username: This is usually the name of your iCloud Mail email address (for example, johnappleseed, not [email protected]). If your email client app can’t connect to iCloud Mail using just the name of your email address, try using the full address.
  • Password: Generate an app-specific password.

SMTP information for the outgoing iCloud Mail server

  • Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
  • SSL Required: Yes
    If you see an error message when using SSL, try using TLS or STARTTLS instead.
  • Port: 587
  • SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
  • Username: Your full iCloud Mail email address (for example, [email protected], not johnappleseed)
  • Password: Use the app-specific password that you generated when you set up the incoming mail server.
