The question I posted removed two email addresses (I'll look out for that next time) that are poignant for this topis.

The second (permitted) addr was just random letters: z1234jklhfrh78fy45grhjgf @ outlook.com

AmadeusTone,
I just prepared a blog post and video about the alias email addresses.
Here is the link to the video that explains what is an email address, when to use it, discussions on limitations and guidelines.

IMPORTANT: Once you delete an alias email, it is gone forever. So make sure you don't delete your primary email address.
Here is the link to Microsoft on how to add and remove an email address for Outlook.com. The instructions are different for Outlook.com and Business Subscriptions.
