Anyone else having sudden incoming authentication errors with iCloud mail on Android?

I can send but not receive. I am using the stock Android e-mail client on my S4. Icloud mail has worked fine up until today. Today I cannot authenticate to imap.mail.me.com. I'm being asked for my password, which has not changed. Authentication fails regardless of security type selected, and I even tried also changing the port to 993 when trying TLS or TLS (accept all certificates). System status page says e-mail is in the green.

iCloud mail-OTHER, Other OS, Android 4.3 on Samsung Galaxy S4

i have also been dealing with this all day between apple who says they know nothing about android fones and verizon who says they know nothing about apple...nothing works ive deleted my .me account on my fone and now cant set it up again. its driving me nutz. i would switch e mails before i buy an i phone...today when this happened is the day apple changed their servers. its definately an apple problem and not your fone or carrier. i hope this isnt little boys fighting over copywrite laws...

im running the latest 10.9.1 still wont work. probably have more luck with an older operating system. seems apple is "upgrading" their server. i have a sinking feeling that it all boils down to apple vs samsung. the apple tech on the fone and the sales guy at verizon already told me that.. "get an i phone, theyre great" i said "no thanks they suck"..this may be a problem they wont get resolved. im calling tech again tmrw.
