Could the various areas of iCloud be explained for their use (Photos,Calendars,Documents etc) and demo's how to activate and use between devices (iMac/ipad/iPhone). Also suggest with current issues for Telus and Shaw email perhaps clarification on using iCloud mail provided with Apple ID and setup/use of Alias options for this email account. Include any limitation on Alias use for sending and receiving.

Good suggestions all. We'll certainly be discussing Apple Mail and iCloud accounts more in the near future given the Telus (and before long Shaw) situation.

Here's a quick article explaining how to set up aliases using an iCloud account. For example, you could have (like I do) [yourname]junk@icloud.com or [yourname]public@icloud.com, etc -- up to five such aliases if I recall correctly. Bear in mind that these aliases work like separate email addresses, but they aren't ... they go into your inbox the same as your regular iCloud address (however, you can set a rule in Mail that any email that comes to [alias] goes straight to junk, for example).
