iCloud Who still has a @mac.com?

[AltecX]

Who is still using theirs?
Personally, I do every time I can. I love still having such a short name, and I hope that Apple keeps it supported for years to come.

Gone are the days when it was possible indeed. Thinking that Apple will keep supporting it

 

[turbineseaplane]

I have it, but don't use it

I have it but I can't seem to remember my email address anymore.

Found this interesting article.

Twelve years later, Apple is still trying to erase mac.com email addresses | AppleInsider

If you've been around the Mac long enough to have an @mac.com address, you've seen Apple trying to migrate you to @icloud.com. Now it's removed yet another trace of the old, favorite email address.

I have it and use it as my main address.

I have it and use it as my main address.

Likewise, me too.
@Mac is used with my primary email addresses.
Also have @me and @icloud for all addresses.

I have it but I can't seem to remember my email address anymore.

It is usually the same as @me or @icloud address.
If you had an @Mac email, when @me was introduced it would have added an @me to the same address.....

 

[ondioline]

Yes I have @Mac @me and @icloud

All it proves is you were dumb enough to buy iTools

Does make me feel like an iTool now that you mention it..

I still only use my @me address. I missed the @Mac address by a whole week.

 

[D1STORT1ON]

I do. It is also my main email

 

[Marshall73]

Still got and use mine.

 

[Mlrollin91]

@ Mac is my main email. Very rarely will I use @ me or @ icloud even though they all go to the same inbox.

 

[mox358]

Still have mine… it’s so nice that they all (@Mac, @icloud and @me) work interchangeably. It’s kind of like a fossil record of my internet history depending on which address an account is set to use!

 

[leagueoflegos]

Have been using @Mac as my main account for over 16 years. WOW. Thanks for the post, OP!

 

[pup]

I’m still on eWorld. So lonely here.

 

[Lioness~]

I have a few variations of those too. Love them. Don't think we have to worry that those disappear.
Assume that I am not the only one that have @me @mac @icloud connected to our Apple-ID.

You can still use your @mac.com email, if you were part of the .Mac service. The only thing they’re axing is MobileMe, my @me.com still receives, but it’s off my list of emails I can use to send.

 

[ouimetnick]

I have a @Mac Apple ID, but it isn’t a valid email address. I do have @me and @icloud though for email.

 

[JtheLemur]

I do! I don’t use it, I use the me.com version, but boy does Apple just LOVE automatically switching it back to the mac.com one in basically every Apple UI… -___-

 

[iamdmann]

I still use it as my main email address - my aliases, too. They'll have to pry that address out of my phone because I'll never willingly give it up. I like it so much more than "iCloud". It just strikes me as more efficient. At some point I wonder if they'll add them back as some newer, higher tier of their services business. I subscribed to itools...they'll get me again. (I also couldn't buy the OS X buggy beta/v1 fast enough...and newtons...)

???? No problems sending from me.com. Maybe check your configuration.

I use mine everyday as my primary email address. Funny, I was only 3 years old when my dad set it up but he thought it was a cool address and wanted to give it to me when I was older. He wasn't sure how long they'd offer it. Glad he did.

My @me is my main email address. Mine still works (I hope!)

Me, three.
