where do i set up my private domain email?

I want my business email comms to run through Apple's closed circuit.


I purchased a few website domains with the option to have a private email domain. How would I connect this private email from my business domain to my icloud email account? I can create up to 3? Say: info, support, my name @businessname.com


Looking through the available guidance, I feel like link to connect my private email domain to my icloud account are making me turn in circles within the same content that doesn't seem to elaborate the steps to actually connect the private domain to the icloud email.


Help...? :)

iPhone X, iOS 14

Hi there SoflyDeguire,


Check out the steps below, as it should help you add a custom email domain to iCloud Mail:


Add a custom email domain to iCloud Mail
You can add a custom email domain you already own to iCloud Mail, or buy a new one.

Note: You need to have a primary iCloud Mail address before you can add a custom email domain on iPhone. See Create a primary email address for iCloud Mail in the iCloud User Guide.

1. Go to Settings  > [your name] > iCloud > iCloud Mail, then make sure “Use on this iPhone” is turned on.
2. Tap Custom Email Domain, then tap one of the following:
* Buy a Domain: Choose this option if you don’t yet have a custom domain. After you purchase it, you can create custom email addresses.
* Use a Domain You Own: Choose this option if you already have a domain, and you want to use it with iCloud Mail. You can configure email addresses you already have at that domain, and create more.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions.

If you’re adding a domain you already own, some registrars require you to change DNS records to set up your domain. See the Apple Support article Set up an existing domain with iCloud Mail.

Those steps, and more information, can be found here: Set up a custom email domain with iCloud Mail on iPhone - Apple Support Please let us know if those steps help or if those are the steps you've already tried.


Take care.
