[MlMt] iCloud accounts require an app specific password starting June 15th

[Benny Kjær Nielsen]

Hi iCloud email account users,

as far as I know then iCloud accounts are still going to require 
application specific passwords starting June 15th. I've put up [a blog 
post](https://blog.freron.com/2017/application-specific-passwords/) 
about this change. Hopefully, most MailMate users are ready :)
