It could be, albeit a form Apple hasn't used for years for its iCloud type accounts.


iCloud: About your @icloud.com, @me.com, and @mac.com email addresses - https://support.apple.com/HT201771 "Depending on when you created your iCloud account, your iCloud email addresses and aliases may end with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com domains. Learn how these email addresses are granted."

My son-in-law who I no longer have contact with, set up an @me.com email many years ago when I first got my iPhone. My computer Outlook email program keeps asking for a password, which I can't find. Nothing I try works. It keeps coming up every 20-30 seconds. I would like to cancel this email address, but can't find how to do it?

You need to enable 2 Factor Authentication on your Apple ID and create an app specific password to use. If your account won’t allow 2 Factor Authentication, try 2 step verification.

Can you delete the account from Outlook?


You can't remove/change @iCloud.com, @me.com or @mac.com aliases.
