Apple has sent out emails to people who previously used their MobileMe service, and is offering them a new iCloud email address, when Apple launched iCloud, anyone who signed up to the service was automatically given an iCloud.com email address.

MobileMe users who previously had a me.com email address used this address for iCloud, and now you can choose to either continue to use your me.com email or have a new iCloud.com email from Apple.

If you sign up to the new iCloud email address with Apple, any mail that is sent to your previous me.com email will automatically be forwarded to your new email address.
