Outgoing mail server icloud
To set up an outgoing mail server for iCloud, you'll need to use the following settings:
IMAP Settings:

smtp.mail.me.com - Port:
587 - Username: Your iCloud email address (e.g.,
[email protected]) - Password: Your iCloud account password

SMTP Settings:
- Host:
smtp.mail.me.com - Port:
587 - Username: Your iCloud email address (e.g.,

Notes:
- Make sure to use the correct port number (587) for the outgoing mail server.
- You may need to enable "Use Authentication" or "Use Secure Authentication" in your email client's settings.
- If you're using a third-party email client, you may need to configure the outgoing mail server settings manually.
- iCloud's outgoing mail server uses STARTTLS encryption, so you may need to configure your email client to use this encryption method.
