Lost emails from Macbook Pro when turning off iCloud
iPhone SE, Macbook, and Macbook Pro connected to iCloud for the express reason of making keychain password available to the the iPhone.
After switching off iCloud on the Macbook Pro, all the email on this computer disappeared. When trying to sign out of oCloud there was indeed a waring about loss of data, but assumed this meant stuff that had been uploaded to iCloud.
How is it possible that iCloud can delete data from my hard drive? Is this intentional?
