I had this problem too, but the app-specific password generator did the trick for me.
As my iCloud email is protected with Apple's two step verification, I needed an 'app-specific password' to sign into an app that's not provided by Apple, like Windows Mail which doesn't support entering verification codes.
Here's the steps (done via my laptop):
Your iCloud email should now start to appear. Despite spending days looking at the config settings, it seems Windows Mail pre-set config is correct, so you shouldn't need to change the incoming or outgoing email server settings:
Incoming email server: imap.mail.me.com:993:1
Outgoing (SMTP) email server: smtp.mail.me.com:587:1
I hope this helps someone. A word of warning though. If you change your primary Apple ID password, all your app-specific passwords will be automatically revoked and you'll need to generate a new one for any apps you want to keep using.
Worked for me. Thanks
