Bought a domain but can't create an email address with the name I want
Hello, I need some help!
The previous user of my domain used this domain with custom email domain with iCloud as name@name.com. Then he deleted this domain and email from his Apple ID.
The problem is that now I will not be able to create custom email with this name. I get an error that this address is already taken. How can I fix it?
I feel deceived as my goal was specifically to create this email with iCloud and only after I bought everything, Apple won't let me do it.
It seems I can still create something like name2@name.com but doesn't make sense to me since I bought the domain not for that name.
If it's for some security reason it also doesn't make sense. I fully own this domain and can set DNS records however I want, which means I already have access to any mail address for my domain.
I'm stuck on this as I want to have my main mail with this particular name. Why can't I do that?
