iCloud/Me email initial settings...Anyone know?

[mw7051]

Does anyone know how to add an iCloud/Me (Apple) email account. I've followed Apples IMAP settings, but ZD won't sync. I get a SSL connection error every time.

Zimbra says it works with every email, but not sure why it won't with Apple. Every email works, except this one. I've tried it on PC/MAC.

Hi Mw7051,

I have set up my me.com iCloud email using these settings and it all works great but when I try and set up my wife's me.com icloud email I keep getting a "User account authentication failed" error in my Zimbra Desktop.

I have used exactly the same settings and her login works fine in both Manage your AppleID and on the iCloud website.

Any ideas of what is wrong?
