Hi Kevin,

The ability to delete an Apple ID is immaterial to your problem.  If the new 
eMail address is not linked to the older one in any way, then you should be 
able to remove it from your Mail app as well as your Internet accounts in 
System Prefs.  If your new eMail is simply an alias of the old one, then 
there's ways around that as well in that you can assign which eMail alias 
responds to a message.  In either case, you should not be stuck with this 
issue.  Whoever told you this is wrong.  I will continue to work with you if 
you wish, it's your call.

Later...

Well, I've had it.  Apparently, if I didn't tell you, kevj...@me.com 
<mailto:kevj...@me.com> is an Apple ID and can't be hosed.  for some reason, in 
many case, not all, if you reply to an e-mail that was sent to your iCloud 
address, your reply will be sent from me.copm if your me.com <http://me.com/> 
is an Apple ID.  You can't hose an Apple ID.  So, there's no getting around the 
idea that you have to always check the SEND field to make sure that it's being 
sent from iCloud and not me.com <http://me.com/>.  ARG!

thanks to all of you for your thoughtful suggestions.  
It was kind of a drag that the only way I could reply reliably was to reply 
from here on the web.  When I tried to simply hit REPLY in my Apple Mail google 
account, I have no idea where it went.  

Oh well,
Kevin

Guys, 

Many years ago, I subscribed to a Reaper mailing list using my kevj...@me.com 
<mailto:kevj...@me.com> address.  This address is now long dead.  I have since 
unsubscribed and resubscribed to this mailing list using kevj...@icloud.com.  
However, even though my e-mails from this list come to my iCloud address, 
hitting reply automatically populates the sending address as kevj...@me.com 
<mailto:kevj...@me.com>.  If I don’t happen to remember to click on the 
outgoing address and change it to kevj...@icloud.com, the mail will be sent to 
nowhere and it will take a few days for me to realize that the reason I haven’t 
heard from whatever I asked about is because nobody saw what I wrote.   

I have tried my best to make sure that kevj...@me.com <mailto:kevj...@me.com> 
is toast.  It is no longer present as a sender’s e-mail address.  But it 
remains as an option in the list of e-mail addresses I can choose when sending 
e-mails.  In fact, if I am currently highlighting an e-mail that came to my 
iCloud account, initiating a blank e-mail appears to populate the From field 
with kevj...@me.com <mailto:kevj...@me.com>, regardless of what e-mail address 
I actually want in the From field.  I can’t remove this me.com <http://me.com/> 
address as an option in the From field no matter what I do.  Can anyone help?   

Thanks, 
Kevin
