Hi Alex
Mac.com started way back when (2001) when Apple introduced it as part of iTools
(which is what it used to be called).
They then changed it to @me.com which was part of MobileMe in 2008. It then
went on to become @iCloud.com in 2011 which is the current iCloud we’re used to
now.

what they are called) as gmail/hot mail etc? Is Apple Mail a POP
programme?
Cheers, Alex

You can use either IMAP or POP into Apple Mail. Generally POP3 downloads it all
from the “server” (ISP) to your computer, so
