How to change ICloud IMAP email

I have an old apple id email which I changed but it is still my iCloud IMAP. Could I change or remove it? This email is not connected to my apple ID.

Hello AABattery238,


You can find steps to manage aliases in the following user guide: Add and manage email aliases for iCloud Mail on iCloud.com - Apple Support


Please keep in mind there are specific circumstances where your Apple ID cannot be changed.


Note: You can’t delete or turn off a primary iCloud Mail address. You can’t use an alias to create a separate Apple ID, and an email alias can’t be converted to a primary iCloud Mail address.


Regards.
