mail in icloud

2 issues:

  1. In Time Machine backups, the Mail app does not appear.
  2. In Icloud mail, it's possible to add email accounts. I have 3 gmail accounts. I can add 2of them, but the account I use for 90+ percent of my email, produces the following message" This email address is not available. Choose a different address"

Ideas?

Hey Babybear5000,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. Time Machine should  back up your personal data, including apps, music, photos, email, and documents. For more Information, review this article: Back up your Mac with Time Machine. If they are iCloud emails, you may not see the option in Time Machine since they are synced with iCloud.


Is the 3rd email address an iCloud account or is it just a Gmail email? If it's an email, are you selecting Google as the email type?


Could you provide us the steps you take when adding the email? Here's a great article that shows steps on adding an email account: Add email accounts in Mail on Mac


Take care.
