No option to remove an old email listed as an alias
I mean, it's listed in Outlook/options/email accounts as a send only alias but if I go and try to manage the aliases on ms account/notifications/email it's not there. I've tried changing the remove url of another alias with this one, but that didn't work either.
Thanks on any help with removing it.

Also, I don't remember actively adding that address to the account (back in the hotmail days), but somehow one day it appeared there and never bothered with it till recently, when I tried to remove it but couldn't find an option to.
I really don't know how it ever got there in the first place.
