Cannot sync icloud mail w/ new Win 10 laptop using Windows Mail App but no 2 factor authentication
I just bought a new laptop with Win 10. I was able to get my verizon and gmail accounts to work in Windows Mail, but cannot get my iCloud mail (and more importantly Contacts) to sync.
I saw a previous solution to fix the situation when you use 2 factor authentication for icloud mail. The suggested fix was to go into your icloud account, then in security ask it to generate an app specific password for Windows Mail, then put that app specific password in when setting up the icloud account in Windows Mail. However, that solution is not available if your icloud account does not use 2 factor authentication (which I don't want).
So, how can I get my Windows 10 Mail to sync my icloud mail and contacts.
I have an older PC with Outlook and I've used iCloud for Outlook on that PC and am able to sync my icloud mail and contacts in Outlook.
Must I just add Outlook to my Win 10 laptop? Is that possible?
