what happened to my me.com email?
Is it possible to access my me.com email? I was prompted to change to iCloud.com and need to access my other email.

If you upgraded your MobileMe account to iCloud then your @me.com address was retained and an @icloud.com address (both having the same tect before the '@') was added. Messages to either come to the main inbox: they are effectively the same account. So you can still use the @me.com version and any stored messages will still be in the folder they were in before.
Of course if when you upgraded to iCloud you opened a new iCloud account then none of the above applies, and you would need to log into your @me.com account using that address, or set that account up in System Preferences (or Settings)>Mail, Contsacts & Calendars as an additional account to the iCloud one.
If that account was never specifically upgraded to iCloud (as would normally have been done when iCloud was first introduced in 2012) I don't know whether that would now cause an issue. If it does you will need to contact Support: https://getsupport.apple.com and navigate through the options.
