I have gone through the steps to migrate from Mobile Me to iCloud on my Mac. The incoming mail server (p99-imap.mail.me.com) is grayed out and cannot be changed. According to Apple Support, that is not the correct incoming mail server. Thoughts?

I have the same mail server for my iCloud account so I don't think there is anything wrong with that. Do you experience actual mail problems? – patrix♦ Oct 26 '11 at 17:31
Yes, I can't receive any mail. – Megan Oct 26 '11 at 17:45

Just talked with Apple IT support. There is an issue with the Apple server. They told me to wait a few hours and try again. – Megan Oct 26 '11 at 19:37

I think it will take a few more weeks for all of the issues associated with Mobile Me migration to iCloud to be worked out. I had many "bumps" at first but every one of them is solved and things are working well. I think you'll enjoy iCloud's speed of syncing compared with the old Mobile Me, I know I am. – Richard Oct 27 '11 at 11:56
