Advice on Merging accounts and Alias email addresses
Hello wnreiaglhet,
I understand that you're looking for advice on merging your Microsoft accounts and organizing alias email addresses. I'll do my best to help you with your situation.
Regarding the issue with your alias email address, when you added pamesitoni.xxx.xxx as an alias to your knwright.xxx.xxx account, it should have appeared in the knwright inbox. However, since you mentioned that it didn't work, there might be a few things we can check.
First, ensure that you have correctly added pamesitoni.xxx.xxx as an alias to your knwright account. You can do this by going to the Microsoft Account website and navigating to the account settings or profile section. Verify that the alias is listed there and associated with your knwright account.
Next, check the forwarding settings in the pamesitoni account. Make sure you have set up the forwarding correctly to send emails to knwright.xxx.xxx. Double-check that there are no typos or other errors in the forwarding configuration.
If you're still facing issues after checking these settings, it's possible that there might be a delay in the alias and forwarding configurations being fully propagated across the Microsoft systems. In such cases, it's advisable to wait for some time, usually up to 24 hours, for the changes to take effect. After that period, check if emails sent to pamesitoni.xxx.xxx are appearing in the knwright.xxx.xxx inbox.
As for the issue with the alias email soqulu.xxx.xxx, when you remove an alias, the associated email address may not be immediately available for reuse. Microsoft has certain mechanisms in place to prevent unauthorized reuse of email addresses. This could be the reason why you're unable to add it back to the knwright account. I apologize for any confusion caused by the lack of warning in this scenario.
To consolidate all email addresses under the knwright account, it's recommended to resolve the issue with the pamesitoni.xxx.xxx alias first. If you're unable to get it working, an alternative option would be to set up a new Microsoft account using the pamesitoni.xxx.xxx email address and migrate any necessary data or subscriptions from the knwright account.
If you prefer to have pamesitoni.xxx.xxx and soqulu.xxx.xxx under the pamesitoni account, you can proceed with that approach. However, please keep in mind that you'll need separate Microsoft accounts for each email address.
If you need further assistance or encounter any other issues, please provide additional details, and I'll be happy to help you further.
Best regards,
Neale
