I've been reading up more on this, and the main disadvantage to iCloud mail seems to be spam filtering. Apple has a horrible spam filter in place, and it is hard to train that filter. Plus, reporting spam seems to involve forwarding the message to s...@icloud.com, which makes no sense at all. I'll turn on my iCloud mail, but if spam management is as bad as the internet claims, I doubt I'll be using it full-time. On Jan 14, 2014, at 3:25 PM, Tim Kilburn <kilbur...@gmail.com> wrote:
