Can't remove Alias email address from Apple ID account.


From my System Preferences or iCloud mail, the option to remove an email address for alias is not available. I'm trying to remove this @icloud.com address but '-' is greyed out. Any ideas why that is and what I could do?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.2
