yesterday I updated my iPhone, created a me.com email and everything works great

today I updated my wife's iPhone, created a me.com email and it doesn't work... I can't send or receive.

the address book, iCal, ect works fine... I just can't can't send or receive.

I don't get any errors from the iCloud site, her iPhone or the Mac Mail app.

when I send an email to it from another email address I get the email kicked back to me.

is anyone else having this problem? should I just chalk this up to growing pains and just wait for it to correct itself?

I'm having a similar problem but a little different. My wife and I had MobileMe and it was just our last name (smith@me.com). I added that to our phones as the primary iCloud account but wanted individual ones too as secondary accounts. I got her one with her first initial (fsmith@me.com) and got me one with my full name (matt.smith@me.com). Hers works fine. Mine will send emails fine but when i send anything to it, I get a kickback.

So problem solving mode... is your account a xxx.xxx@me.com? or does it have no periods?
