Apple brings iCloud.com Email Addresses to iOS 6 Beta 3
By 
When Apple released their new iOS 6 Beta 3 to developers, they added a new feature that will initialize the first stages of transitioning users from the me.com email addresses and Apple IDs available under MobileMe to new addresses using icloud.com. Users can now get icloud.com email addresses to use with the iCloud mail service.
The way it works is that when a user signs up for a new Apple IDs, or enables Mail on their iCloud account for the first time, they will now receive a new @icloud.com email address. iCloud users with @me.com addresses that have been used with iOS 6 beta 3 will receive an @icloud.com email address that matches their @me.com address.
Readers might remember that Apple discontinued MobileMe in favor of iCloud as of June 30, although MobileMe users are still able to transition their accounts to iCloud for a limited time.
