email account on cloud

I am trying to get my emails onto cloud so i can access stored emails on my computer from my iphonr or ipad.

I have me accts, gmail acct, and another one.

I presently store my emails on my laptop "on my mac" folder to filethem away but then I can not access them if traveling and needing info on laptop left at home.

Id like to be able to have the option for certain email folders of my stored emails "on my mac" to be available via cloud to my iphone and ipad.

How could I do this?

Thank you

The only way to do this is to upload the messages to iCloud. To do this, either choose an existing folder on iCloud or create a new one; locate this in the sidebar in Mail. Then select the mailbox containing the messages you want to transfer. Select some of them (don't try to do a large number at a time, stick to a couple of hundred or so, not thousands) and drag them to the folder under iCloud. Wait for them to upload - this may take some time. (They won't be removed from your Mac).

This is the info on iCloud mail, http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2638 what you are talking about doing is saving your other email message base to iCloud...that will require regular saving of the data base since it is not really an iCloud email system.
