Selecting Hide My Email as my "from" address generates an error

Hey there Jolin Warren,

The error mentions a forwarding address; if you add a forwarding email address, are you able to use Hide My Email when composing emails? Also, are you trying to send this email to more than one email address at a time? If so, then you will need to send the emails to one person at a time for Hide My Email to work.

If you still run into this issue, try creating an email in Settings next by using these steps:

When you subscribe to iCloud+, you can use Hide My Email to keep your personal email address private. With Hide My Email, you can generate unique, random email addresses that forward to your personal email account, so you don’t have to share your real email address when filling out forms or signing up for newsletters on the web, or when sending email.

You can create and manage Hide My Email addresses in Settings . Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Hide My Email, then do any of the following:

• Create a Hide My Email address: Tap Create New Address, then follow the onscreen instructions.

Take care!
