Using iCloud for my emails.
I need to start over. I didn’t make myself clear previously.
My only email address is my Apple id - name@icloud.com that I use in Mail on iPhone and iPad.
A couple weeks ago i decided to try icloud for my mail. I used iphone Settings - Name - iCloud (iCloud+) and pressed Mail icon to use email on iCloud using my apple id/email address.
Now I don’t like using only iCloud for email. I want to stop using iCloud and access my mail on my iPhone Mail app. But when I use the Mail app now it is showing iCloud as the source of my emails.
I turned off the Mail icon on Settings - iCloud , but now when I press the Mail app in my iPhone, I get this screen that looks like it is asking me to set up a brand new account.
I tried using “other” to use iPhone Mail again but it gives me an error message
My internet network connection is fine. The information I entered is correct.
What does “this account may not be able to send or receive emails. Are you sure you want to save?”
Are you kidding me? Why?
I simply don’t want to use iCloud as the only storage for my emails. I want my email stored in Mail on my iPhone so I can access emails without an internet connection.
