Imaplib login with iCloud account refused as not authorized

Imaplib login with my iCloud account is refused, as not authorized, but login with other imap accounts, even on me.com are accepted. The user and passwords are correct.
The only difference is that the refused account is used in the settings as main account of iCloud, iCloud Drive etc...
