hi all,

 

based on research , test, need turn on the 2-steps verification generate app-specific password if add icloud account in outlook mac client.

 

after generating app-specific password, please follow below steps check imap settings:

  1. imap information incoming mail server
    1. server name: imap.mail.me.com
    2. ssl required: yes
    3. port: 993
    4. username: full icloud email address .
    5. password: app-specific password.
  2. smtp information outgoing mail server
    1. server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    2. ssl required: yes
    3. port: 587
    4. smtp authentication required: yes
    5. username: your full icloud email address
    6. password: app-specific password.
