How do I set up my current iCloud email address on a new iOS device?
I have an iCloud email on my old iPhone and on my mac. When I slide the "mail" slider on in settings on my new iPhone, it tries to get me to create a new account. I can't figure out how to enable my current account. Everything else to do with iCloud, to my knowledge is functioning like normal on my new phone.

In case anyone else shares my problem, the specific thing I had to do was follow the instructions in your first link. Also, I had to know, which I did not remember, that my iCloud email password has nothing to do with my iCloud password. Also, after I entered the correct password, my phone told me that this email was already enabled on this phone and I can't turn it on. But then, upon opening the mail app, it finally downloaded all my iCloud emails.
Thanks for you help.
