To fix iCloud email not working for iMessage:
- Make sure iCloud Mail is ON
- Turn iMessage OFF → ON
- Sign out of Apple ID → sign back in
- Enable email under Messages → Send & Receive
- Reset network settings
- Check FaceTime activation
- If still not working → Apple must refresh your iMessage email activation on the server
