I have recently changed my hotmail email address to outlook’s. So instead of username@hotmail.com I have username@outlook.com.
I want to add alias to the account. I presume it works like Yahoo’s which is disposable.
To date, I still have not worked out how to add one.
I went to the page https://account.live.com/AddAssocId?ru=https://blu164.mail.live.com/mail/?mkt=en-au&rru=inbox&cru=&fl=nd which shows the following.
”
Create a new email address and add it as an alias
Your account can have up to 0 aliases, each of which lets you sign in to all the devices and services that use Microsoft account. Your aliases share a single password, and you can send and receive mail with each. Learn more about account aliases.

No matter what I did I still failed. The help didn’t help either. It was very confusing to me. I wonder if anybody has done it successfully and doesn’t mind to reword and tell me in plain language. By the way, was I on the right web page?
One of the main thing which I am not too sure is whether an alias would have the original email address be part of the address like Yahoo’s or it could be completely different.
Any help would be appreciated.
