Set up an iOS or iPadOS device

On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud, then turn on Mail.

Set up a Mac

On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then do one of the following:
- macOS Catalina 10.15: Click Apple ID, click iCloud, then select Mail.
- macOS 10.14 or earlier: Click iCloud, then select Mail.

Set up a Windows computer with Microsoft Outlook

If you haven’t already, set up the iCloud for Windows app. See Set up iCloud on an iOS device, iPadOS device, Mac, or Windows computer.
On your Windows computer, open iCloud for Windows.
Select Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and Tasks, then click Apply.
Your iCloud Mail account is listed in the folder list (also called the navigation pane) on the left side of Microsoft Outlook. To view your iCloud Mail folders in Outlook, click the disclosure triangle to the left of your iCloud email account.

If you’re having trouble with iCloud Mail in Outlook, see the Apple Support article Get help using Outlook with iCloud for Windows.

Access iCloud Mail on a Windows computer without Microsoft Outlook

If Microsoft Outlook is not installed, the Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and Tasks option doesn’t appear in the iCloud for Windows app. Use your web browser to access Mail on iCloud.com.
