How do I get an imap password?

Hello,
This Apple Support article goes over the needed server settings to add your iCloud account to a 3rd party mail app. The password would be your Apple ID password but it is recommended to create an App Specific Password instead. That limits the type of data the app can access and can be revoked easier than changing your Apple KD Password.

"IMAP information for the incoming iCloud Mail server
The article also gives the outgoing SMTP information if you need that.
I hope this helps.

The password is the same one you would use to log into your mail provider. You would have to have an account to use the mail service. If you have forgotten your password, log into their web portal and look for the forget password link. Hopefully they would be able to send the reset link by text, if you are unable to receive emails.
IMAP allow receiving emails on multiple devices and by deleting on one device, it will delete on all. POP email downloads your emails on each device independently and deleting will only delete on that one device. SMTP is used mostly for outgoing mail and is used with both IMAP and POP. There is a password field for both the IMAP (incoming) server and the SMTP (outgoing) server in your settings, but they use the same password.

Getting an iMap Password:
Contact your eMail Provider for instructions. There are three protocols: SMTP, iMap4 and POP3; you need to know which to use. Your Career has that information on how to configure it.
