How to fill in the ICLOUD IMAP and SMPT in plug-in for Filemaker 18 in Mojave?

I hope to use an email plugin in Filemaker pro Advanced 18 on Mojave

I tried various plugin found in Google but the problem is always the same

The software rejects the "imap.mail.me.com" and the SMPT equivalent in my ICLOUD email address even if every other field is correct.

Could anyone tell me how to fill in properly the server settings?

In the Mojave AppleMail app there seem to be noway to do so and I googled in vain

Thanks

IMAP information for the incoming iCloud 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 of your iCloud Mail email address (for example, johnappleseed, not johnappleseed@icloud.com). If your email client app can't connect to iCloud Mail using just the name of your email address, try using the full address.
Password: Generate an app-specific password.

SMTP information for the outgoing iCloud 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 Mail email address (for example, johnappleseed@icloud.com, not johnappleseed)
Password: Use the app-specific password that you generated when you set up the incoming mail server.

Thanks for your reply, however I already followed these instructions from the very same page you kindly pasted in reply but unfortunately I receive this error:

I'm using the dacons.net plug in for email and filemaker pro advanced available for Mojave and FMPadvanced 18

I tried other plug in a test mode and they all claim to be fully available for one week or more. Is there a different site where I might get some infoirmation.

Thanks a lot for your time

Of course, this was my first choice but Since last monday, when I wrote them the first message, I received only automatic replies, telling me my query is under consideration and they will get back to me as soon as possible.
