Send and receive iCloud Mail on all your devices and keep Mail settings up to date
With iCloud, you can create an iCloud Mail address and send and receive mail on all your devices. You can also keep Mail settings up to date.
If you subscribe to iCloud , you can set up a custom email domain to personalize iCloud Mail.
Send and receive email from an @icloud.com address
The first time you sign in to your Apple Account on a device and turn on iCloud Mail, you can create a primary iCloud email address. Any emails you send or receive at that address are stored in the cloud, which frees up space on your device. You can send and receive emails on any device that has iCloud Mail turned on, including your iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Windows device. You can also access your iCloud Mail in a web browser at iCloud.com.
Because your mail is in the cloud, changes you make on one device—like sorting mail into folders, marking an email as unread, or deleting an email—automatically appear on all your devices. You see the most up-to-date version of your mail, no matter where you access it.
Note: Mail stored in iCloud counts toward your iCloud storage. If you run out of iCloud storage space, you won’t be able to receive new emails at your iCloud Mail address until you make more storage space available.
Keep Mail settings up to date
When you turn on iCloud Drive in iCloud settings, you can also store your Mail settings in the cloud. This way, you can keep your mail signatures, VIP contacts, Smart Mailboxes, and more, up to date on your devices. The settings that stay up-to-date depend on the device you’re using.
