I'm looking for the way to delete an iCloud IMAP alias. It lists email addresses that are incorrect and unused for my son. I'm not even sure how they got there. Its like its linked to his iCloud somehow. Is that even possible?
I'm not asking about an iCloud Email aliases. It's the IMAP email alias that is the problem. Notice that I have 0 of 3 aliases used. Please help!

If you want edit mail alias created in an IMAP account see this article https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/mail/use-email-aliases-mlhlp1205/mac
TYGB, thanks for the helpful answer. Not sure why Apple doesn't allow them to be changed or deleted. Frustrating. Thanks again.
We all in the community are Mac users , apple engineers have designed the product and no clues for it , perhaps you can send a feedback to this link https://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html
TYGB,
Again, please note from the picture in the OP that I do not have an alias set up, nor am I trying to delete an Email alias. The settings show I have 0 aliases.
The problem is in the base iCloud IMAP setting. There are aliases there that I can seem to delete. They are email addresses, but not email aliases.
LACAllen, Im not trying to be difficult. Please look at the picture in the OP. You can see that there are no Email Alias accounts, but there are email addresses in the IMAP tab. It is these email addresses, listed as Aliases in my Apple ID that I'm trying to get rid of. Thanks.
Enter in www.icloud.com with your Apple ID and password , click on mail , again click on gear icon in bottom left corner and open preferences , the Apple ID created say example1@icloud.com can " never " be deleted from iCloud server .
Once it is set up from your Mac hardware address it is impossible to delete .You can also consult advisors in apple support see this link https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201232
And a screen shot .
Thanks but it’s the IMAP alias that’s the problem. This doesn’t address that.
If they are not visible here, where are you seeing them?
