setting as per Apple not yet working in this case:


Mail server settings for iCloud email clients - Apple Support

IMAP

information for the incoming mail server



  • Server name:
  • imap.mail.me.com


  • SSL Required: Yes

  • If you see an error message when using SSL, try using
  • TLS instead.


  • Port: 993


  • Username: This is usually the name part of your iCloud
  • email address (for example, emilyparker, not
  • emilyparker@icloud.com). If your email client can't connect to iCloud
  • using just the name part of your iCloud email address, try using the full
  • address.

  • Password: Generate an
  • app-specific password.

SMTP

information for the outgoing mail server



  • Server name:
  • smtp.mail.me.com


  • SSL Required: Yes

  • If you see an error message when using SSL, try using
  • TLS or STARTTLS instead.


  • Port: 587


  • SMTP Authentication Required: Yes


  • Username: Your full iCloud email address (for
  • example, emilyparker@icloud.com, not emilyparker)


  • Password: Use the app-specific
  • password that you generated when you
  • set up the incoming mail server.

It is much easier than i thought.

With iCloud.com, I changed my ID to remove Microsoft information ( @hotmail in my case ) but retain ID name before @hotmail.com


When Apple ID no longer ends with Microsoft information ( @hotmail) , I added account and all existing eMails are retained in Outlook 365!


Thanks!

② I don't know.

Call Apple in your region see & ask them: Contact Apple for support and service
