This morning I am receiving this message on all of my devices: iMac, and 2 iPhones.
When I attempt to access my iCloud mail account, it goes off line.
Anyone else having this problem? It appears that the iCloud server is having problems this morning.
Last successful access was last evening.
Changed nothing on my end.
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
Just attempted to access mail directly from the iCloud web page.
I can successfully login, but when I attempt to access mail, I get the spinning wheel -- can't access mail via the web page either.
I am having the exact same problem -- on iMac, 2 iPhones, iPad --- and also the problem exists when iCloud is accessed via the web, Mail and Calendar do not work on the web, but Notes and Contacts seem to be fine.
Has Apple put out any info on this problem with the "server"?
I am also having this problem. Last email I received was this morning at 6:37 am. Now I cannot get mail at all on any device from my iCloud account.
It appears you are correct that there are server issues this AM. I'm also unable to access iCloud mail – from my Mac or iPhone – or by signing in online. OTH, my wife's account is working. Screenshot below from Apple Support.

I have the same issue - what I don't understand is that I can send from my iCloud email account, just not receive anything.
Is this a normal sign that iCloud is down when I run a basic connection diagnostic on my mail server?
*Please note I'm not particularly technical so please go gently with any answers or help you can offer!!
The status page indicates that only a small percentage of users are affected (.86%). I wonder is this has something to do with the specific server to which our accounts have been assigned?
Maybe... I realise it might be a slightly unrealistic ask, but would be nice if the support page could give a little bit more info than what they are currently showing. I've spent most of my afternoon looking at troubleshooting pages instead of working, thinking it was something to do with my account.
Question - my current apple ID is with my @yahoo.co.uk address - would you recommend me changing it to my @icloud.com address or does it not make any difference? And if I should change it, what is the impact/what do I need to change and where? Anything Apple related - iTunes, Apple Music, phone, etc?
Hi Lucy.
I suspect your account has something else going on than the server issue – or you wouldn't be able to send either. Check whether you can get mail online. Also, suggest trying the steps listed here.

Lucy,
A lot of people are having the same issue. It's Apple's problem, hopefully fixed soon. Changing your apple I.D. won't help and if you do you'll have to change it on all of your devices, applications etc. A real PITA!

iCloud Mail stopped service for me at 8a.m. And I use this email for my business. Not a happy camper. Perhaps Apple Mail is not as reliable as it used to be....when I have time I may change all my business emails to Google Mail. Hope the server is fixed soon.
I assume you imagine that Google never has outages, prepare to be disappointed.
I am not aware of that. My Google service has never been down, with two accounts. Hmmm. I do believe my iCloud Mail is back in service. Yay!
iCloud Server Unavailable
