Apr 2, 2014 11:28 AM in response to paul2104by Csound1,Your choices led you here.
I care not about your multi award winning approach, it has gaps in it.

Apr 2, 2014 11:31 AM in response to paul2104by paul2104,I predict that in 1 year, 5 years, 10 years, or whenever, that Apple's email service will eventually no longer lose emails. I'd also like to think that forums like this can help that progress to happen, and that people shouldn't be afraid to make the problems known without fear of getting trolled.

Apr 2, 2014 11:32 AM in response to Csound1by John Florence,I can't believe someone is actually defending Apple losing emails. I'm a fanboy longtime Apple user and defender and I wouldn't go that far, no way. Is it a free service? Not really. It's meant to tie users into the Apple ecosystem, and it's supposed to work.

Trolls often ignore the terms of use they previously agreed to.
Just like you are now.

Or your configuration, the effectiveness of which is in some doubt.
I use iCloud for personal use, I have never lost an email.
And as my clients expect not to see a free domain at the end of my address, but would be more comfortable with email from a domain that belongs to my company, and as much as I want an email system that is prepared for business use, I don't use it for business.
But YMMV
Enough differing, goodbye and goodluck.

May 26, 2014 4:24 PM in response to Csound1by NatashaLuggero,Csound1 you're the worst. Thanks for being zero help and wasting everyones time. You must be pretty proud of that level 7 status...congrats on that.

May 26, 2014 4:35 PM in response to NatashaLuggeroby Csound1,Natasha. Thank you so much for waiting all this time to compliment me. I can tell how hard you have been working to achieve your level, you must be quite breathless now.

May 26, 2014 5:09 PM in response to Csound1by paul2104,The level 7 clearly doesn't relate to being helpful in any way.
Csound1, what's your view on the fact that iCloud is used for file storage by thousands of apps – for which the end user DOES pay, and should therefore arguably expect a service from Apple that works properly.
And given that it's code, aren't the hundreds of thousands of data loss errors something that the code is creating and are probably buried too deeply in the code to ever properly sort out?
(don't worry, I'm not expecting you to say anything useful..)

If we were talking about file storage you would have a point.
But we're not.
iCloud email service is free.

May 26, 2014 5:52 PM in response to Csound1by paul2104,It's not free at all? All of it's coders get paid, and they get paid by me when I buy my Mac and buy my software updates.
In what way do you reason that Apple produced it for free?

Please don't play silly semantic games with me,
Mavericks is free to purchase, if you can't understand that it's your problem.
Bye

May 27, 2014 2:20 AM in response to Csound1by paul2104,It's not semantics at all. In Apple's accounts you will see that both icloud and icloud email are fully funded pieces of software. You are saying that if Apple funds them by an indirect rather than direct method, that frees them from any obligation to do the job properly. Commercial TV channels are free to the viewer too, but in reality the viewer obviously pays for every programme and no one is working for 'free'. It's not some big secret, and if those channels didn't do their job impeccably, they would go bust.
It's not semantics, it's an age old funding method & you just no longer have an answer about why it makes sub-standard work either acceptable or good business sense.
