Checking iCloud email on a Windows PC

I have an iCloud email address from my old iPhone. Now I'm on Android and Windows. Can I get that email in Outlook or Gmail, and do I need some special password for it?

if you use classic Outlook, the iCloud for Windows app from the Microsoft Store can set the mail up for you, no typing in servers. And if you do add it by hand, the username is your full iCloud email address, not just the bit before the @.

easiest is just signing in to the iCloud website in your browser, mail is right there. If you want it in Outlook or the Windows Mail app, add it as an IMAP account: incoming server imap.mail.me.com (port 993, SSL), outgoing smtp.mail.me.com (port 587). The thing that catches everyone is the password. Your normal Apple password gets rejected; you need an app-specific password, which you generate in your Apple account settings under Sign-In and Security.
