Setting up e-mail for Android?

Has anyone successfuly set up their Android phone to work with MobileMe/iCloud?


What were your settings?


I did search before I posted but none of those settings worked.


I would think this would be a straight forward process since it's pretty standardized.

You'll need to put these settings (works only for email):


MAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:

  • Server name: imap.mail.me.com
  • SSL Required: Yes
  • Port: 993
  • Username: example@me.com (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
  • Password: Your iCloud password

SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:

  • Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
  • SSL Required: Yes
  • Port: 587
  • SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
  • Username: example@me.com (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
  • Password: Your iCloud password

  • Username: if your address is:example@me.com (use "example", not the whole address)
  • Password: Your iCloud password

After spending quite some time trying to get my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II setup with iCloud mail, this is what finally worked. Thanks to everyone for the various bits that helped lead me in the right direction. For those who need lots of detail, I hope the below helps. Please don't ask me about any other specific Android phones as I'm not expert but thought someone out there could benefit from my experience. 😉
