should I use @icloud.com, @mac.com

I've been getting messages from multiple sources that emails sent to @icloud.com are being rejected. Over the years I've used @me, @mac and @icloud...which is correct?

How do I create a new Apple email address to stop receiving inappropriate emails? My Apple email address is receiving 30 to 40 of these every day. Can I create another email address with Apple to stop this happening. This email is my Apple ID as well, please can you help me. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

This email is already in use with another Apple ID I'm trying to register a new email on my custom domain. However, every time I try, I receive the following message: "this email is already in use with another Apple ID". The one I'm trying to access is not on any ICloud ID (they all have icloud.com), nor is it on any account in the email app, in other words, nowhere. Even so, the message continues to appear. Where can I see where this email is supposedly being used? Thanks.

Email "User Does Not Exist" for my long standing email address I sent an email from my gmail account and cc:d my own apple email address--one I have been using for years. It bounced back "User does not exist". The email address is correct. I tried from another apple email alias and got the response "Address not found. Your message was not delivered because the address could not be found or is unable to receive email." The other alias works fine.

I use @iCloud.com and it has always worked fine for me. That's what I'd recommend!
