Q: imap.mail.me.com server not responding

Hello, all my non iOS devices cannot pick up my mac e mail. It just started on Friday I think. I have a work Android and it say the imap.mail.me.com server is not responding. I have deleted the account and re-installed it to no avail. Is the server down?

Did you run through the troubleshooting steps in these guides -- iCloud: Mail server settings for email clients - Apple Support & If you can’t send or receive email on your Mac - Apple Support OR Re: When retrieving mail I get "The Identity of "mail.me.com" cannot be verified"

Thanks for the replies. Much appreciated. I got it working again by using my .icloud e mail address instead of my .me address that I have always used before. Strange, something has changed.

Start your own thread, describe your own problem in it. Include any error messages. Then someone can help you.
