I noticed there is an option to sent an e-mail from user@icloud.com instead of user@me.com. When i try this, i get a message wich says the mail cannot be sent from the server. When i change the sent from to user@me.com is does work.
I want to sent mail from my user@icloud.com adress. How do i get this to work?
MacBook Pro (13-inch Early 2011), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
You wait until Apple notifies you by email that it is working...

How long did it actually take to receive that notification? Apple's support doc says "weeks" - that seems very much on the safe side ... ;-)
And does anyone know why it takes that long? I mean: you are signed in with your me.com - what are they doing for "weeks"? Watching the mail server?!? :-)))
Well, I haven't actually received that notification yet, but my @icloud.com address has recently started working both for incoming and outgoing mail. The address appeared in my email clients before it actually worked though.
Hm ... thx for the info. I don't have the icloud.com adress in my mail client on the MacBook. But I have it on the iPhone - can use it too, but it produces the postmaster-fail you mentioned above.
How long did it take then to work? A week? I don't want to test each day ...
I tried it when the email address first appeared and it didn't work. I tried it again a couple of weeks later and it worked. That was about a week ago for me.
So it actually takes "weeks" ... :-)))
Ok, thanx for your help!
@icloud.com as sent from does not work
