If I have iCloud - but don't have a me.com address?

Is it possible to get IMAP/CalDAV access to iCloud - if you don't have a who@me.com email address?


Since me.com is closed they hand out me@icloud.com ones instead

New @me.com addresses are no longer available. You can create a new iCloud account by signing in with your Apple ID in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud (Lion 10.7.2 or iOS5 minimum required). When you check 'Mail' in the checklist there you will be asked to create a new @icloud.com address. This will then set your Mail application up to access the account.

Perhaps I wasn't clear.


I do have a user@icloud.com - and I want to access that email address via IMAP, and the calendar via CalDav.

I do not have any Apple computers in my house, so I don't use the Mail.app (or what it is called), so no automatic settings from that.


The most thrilling part for me would be to be able to access the calendar from my PC, since you can't set events to just last one week, 7 days - and there's no copypasta of events.


(I work one week and have one week off sort of schedule)

Well my @icloud.com is my Apple-ID.

I just got an iPhone 4s from my wife (well I got her "old" when she got a 5), and following the wizard I got a user@icloud.com Apple-ID.


I really like the icloud.com webinterface, but it'd be really nice to be able to sync stuff to other computers (and since I use neither windows or outlook that goes out the window).

If I have iCloud - but don't have a me.com address?
