Okay, we're back online...it looks like all of yesterday's/today's emails are there. Hope this takes care of the problem.

Yay!

🙂

Sadly, I'm notting having the same good fortune... if I try and access my email through a web page, the message from iCloud reads: "Cannot load Mail - help Apple improve iCloud by reporting this problem". My Mail client on my MBP is still jammed with email with no content; nothing new received since 14:01 GMT yesterday ....ditto Mail on my iPhone!

I travelled yesterday from Orlando back to Montreal, my email is still not working. Coincidentally(?) my email on my iPhone stopped receiving .me mails @ 2012-09-11 9:11 am.

I am expecting a very important email as I use my .me as primary private email adress. Apple, please fix this!

I'm still not fully up, only email responses from this forum. Interestingly, I was receiving blank emails this week on my iphone with old dates on it - 2000, 1969, no sender, no subject. Wonder if there is a link there???

Contact Apple and insist they give you a year free to stay with them for the inconvenience they have caused you. If the outages is fixed today, do not settle for less than 6 months. If it is truely just 1.1%, it won't hurt their bottom line.

Just tried sending an e-mail from several other accounts to my @me.com address. This is the error message I got.

----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----

<____@me.com>

(reason: 550 5.7.0 Blocked

Now I'm really concerned!

Not only can I not access my e-mail, but e-mails are being bounced. So does that mean e-mails people tried to e-mail me during this outage are now permanently lost?

Looks like I'm starting to get some mail. All of my old mail is gone though... completely deleted. Any mail that I have recieved in the past 36 hours since I've been without service is not showing. I really do hope that it resurfaces at some point and time. I've been expecting some very important incoming mail these past two days. Is it up and running for anyone else? Is all of your mail showing?... I would love to know. Thank you!

Just looked at my mail... looks like everything that I've received thusfar is from apple support communities updates. Where's my other mail???

Just back up in Rochester, NY. Started hearing pings and email started appearing. Hope it lasts. Just sent an email too with no problem. Can't be sure yet if all incoming emails made it yet but all appears OK so far.

I am still with out email since Monday...no word from Apple except it only effects 1%, well thats me and it *****...At least some word as to when it might be back up so I don't have to check every few min to see it I can get my email.😕

Indiana here...my email has been trickling in at 1-3 emails every 5 minutes or so over the last 20 minutes. Most are responses to this thread. My email was down about 40 hours total. Looks like everyone at Apple was working on the live event today and now that it's over, we're seeing some fixes to the icloud. Very frustrating.

not in london. here is what it says:

Mail could not be loaded

MESSAGE

There was a problem loading the application due to a possible network error or missing resources. Please try again.

I wonder if the notifications of these messages will stop. I have turned off notifications and they just wont stop!

Not complaining, but I want my actual email. Not these emails. Apologies to those having the same problems!

its crazy.

now i only receive notifications from this discussion even if i turned it off.

i tryed to send me an email from another icloud account (that was working all the time) but i didnt get it.

its sick. really.

again i wonder if this thing is somehow related with the stolen udids

Receiving mail but each time I go to a folder and return to my inbox anything that was there dissapears agian!!! I've lost all emails in my inbox... everything! Over 10,000 emails... GONE!!! Hearing blings that mail is coming in but most of it is Apple Support Communities Updates. I've always been a HUGE apple fan but this has me thinking twice about it. I wish that I could just walk away from my computer for a couple of days and return to it with everything restored... wouldn't that be lovely.

Just a thought: What business would rely on a freebie e-mail account with no uptime guarantee? ::tapping foot::

Even Google Apps doesn't guarantee 100% uptime....

Over 24 hours is just too much for any self employed person to go without emails!!!!!! There had better be some compensation to those who have lost work as a result of this. Apple should at least put all of us 1 percent in the picture.

Well I've had 2 normal emails coming through after 30+ hours and other than that just an endless stream of apple support forums emails even after unsubscribing... Other than that hard to say what's missing and when it will come through but at least it seem to be slowly coming back to life. AFTER 2 FRICKIN' DAYS APPLE... Seriously not cool and the information blackout just makes you look more arrogant!
