How to Access Your iCloud Email Using a Third-Party App

If you've recently purchased an "iCloud.com App-Specific Password" account from BuyProAccs, you might want to access your emails using an app outside of Apple’s ecosystem. By using IMAP or POP protocols, and with an App-Specific Password, you can receive and send emails through other email clients. This guide walks you through setting up iCloud email on the Windows 11 Mail app step-by-step.

Step 1: Open the Mail App

Open the Windows 11 Mail app. When prompted, enter your iCloud email address as shown in the image below. This step connects your account to the app.

Step 2: Add Your iCloud Account

Click on the suggested account or manually input your iCloud email. Once done, click "Continue" to proceed.

Step 3: Sync Your iCloud Account

The next screen will ask if you want to sync your iCloud account to the Mail app. Click on "Continue" to proceed.

Step 4: Enter Your App-Specific Password

Now, enter the App-Specific Password provided for your iCloud account. It will look something like "sjpt-qgep-tjgp-nsme." If you don't have this password, generate one from your Apple ID account settings. After entering the password, click "Continue."

Step 5: Configure Additional Settings

Review any additional privacy settings or diagnostics options. Adjust them based on your preferences, then proceed by clicking "Accept."

Step 6: Finish the Setup

Once you’ve configured the settings, finalize the process by clicking "Apply Settings" or skipping it if you prefer. Your iCloud account is now set up in the Mail app.

Step 7: Explore Your Inbox

After setup, you’ll land in the Inbox section. Here, you can view your received emails and organize them as needed. You’ll also find folders like Sent Items, Drafts, and more to manage your emails effectively.

Step 8: Send Emails

To compose and send an email, navigate to the Sent Items section or click "New Mail" to start drafting your message. Fill in the recipient's address, subject, and body, then hit "Send."

Helpful Tips

  • Secure Your App-Specific Password: Never share your password with others to keep your account safe.
  • Check Privacy Settings: Review and adjust privacy settings during the setup to suit your preferences.
  • Test Email Functionality: Send a test email to ensure everything is working correctly.

And that’s it! You’re now ready to manage your iCloud emails effortlessly using the Mail app. If you encounter any issues, visit BuyProAccs for support.
