I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below if you are unable to receive iCloud mail.
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Mail
If you can't receive mail in OS X Mail
Locate the name of your iCloud account on the left side of the main Mail window. If your iCloud account name is dimmed and has a lightning-bolt symbol next to it, your account is offline. To bring your account online, make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet, then choose Mailbox > Take All Accounts Online. If that doesn't resolve the issue, follow these steps:
- Choose Preferences from the Mail menu.
- Click Accounts in the Preferences window.
- Select your iCloud account from the list of accounts.
- Click the Advanced tab and verify these settings:
- Port: 993
- Use SSL: (selected)
- Authentication: either "Password" or "Apple Token"

Jan 6, 2015 10:19 AM in response to griff wby Andy Marlow,Thanks Griff. I have tried this and other troubleshooting guidelines. The fact is, the incoming emails for iCloud are now intermittent. Some are arriving on time, some after a considerable delay and some not at all. There are no filters set. The issue has arisen only in the last few days.
