Getting another persons @icloud emails!

You have mentioned - but I'm getting e-mails sent to myname@icloud.com constantly. It's about 15-25 emails a day, some with password recovery links, other with very personal information.

Did you clicked on the link to reset password , you don't need to sent mails to unknown persons as once the mail address is revealed phi-shy mails will be received .

The Apple ID say example1@icloud.com can't be repeated by another person , as when the account is created , the credentials are set up with account , and another person can't gain it sitting far away unless you reveal to them , also iCloud server will not accept the repeated mail address ( you can verify it with apple support Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support

)

The most likely explanation is that these idiots have decided that they own this email address when obviously they don't. It sounds bizarre, but you're not the first person to have this problem. It's not a situation where changing your password is going to make any difference. They are using this address to apply for memberships or make purchases.

The laborious way of dealing with this is to reply to each one pointing out that this email is being used in error. This won't make any difference unless the original email from the idiot has included his physical address, as when he's making a purchase. It's probably not worth getting involved in this.

Since you are not using the @icloud.com version of your address, only the @me.com you can minimize the annoyance by setting up a Rule to move any such messages to the Trash, from where they will automatically be deleted after a week.

Go to the Mail page at icloud.com and click the cogwheel icon at bottom left. Choose Rules. Click 'Add a Rule":

Set the options as above, click 'Done' and then 'Done' at the bottom of the pane.

The perpetrator is obviously not receiving any answers to his messages: perhaps after a century or two the penny will drop.

It's a nuisance but you should consider creating another appleID and using that for emails and everything else (iPhone set up etc). The Apple system seems to automatically assume that @me.com (and the older @mac.com) email addresses are aliases for @icloud.com but something seems to have gone horribly wrong for you.

Sometimes someone is simply guessing an email address or did not understand the address correctly someone told him. If the guessed address does not bounce, they think, they have used the correct address and keep sending more messages to the same address. You may want to return the emails to the sender, if they are clearly not meant for you, with the information that they are using a wrong email address.

I received for some time letters to a parent about about their kids from the school (on a different continent), so I wrote to the school to ask the parents for the correct address.
