iCloud on a 3g iphone

I have a MBP, an iMac, an iPad 2 and an iPhone 3G.


I upgraded from MobileMe to iCoud.


There was no way for me to receive my @me.com mail on my iPhone 3G any longer so I deleted the account from my iPhone and now it won't let me set it back up as an email option. I'm not talking about iCloud support on the 3G, I'm talking about the Mail app being able to simply receive and send email.


Are there no IMAP settings for iCloud @me emails for the iPhone 3G?

Help Please! This started in March and I have not been able to recieve any @me.com email on my iPhone since then.

I have tried the below - followed the entire instructions and it still didn't work.


Notes:

  • If you are using Mail on a Mac with OS X Lion (v10.7.2 or later), or Microsoft Outlook 2007 or 2010 on a Windows PC, follow these instructions for automated iCloud setup.
  • If you are using Mail on a Mac with Mac OS X Snow Leopard (v10.6), or a device with iOS 4, see this article with specific instructions.

For more information on how to use this information with your email application, consult your application's documentation.IMAP (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

Note: If you receive errors using SSL, try using TLS instead.

Additional Information

SSL is required for both IMAP and SMTP connection with iCloud. POP is not supported by iCloud.
