    Note

    The communications that you receive at your preferred email address are optional, so you can use any email address for this purpose, including your Office 365 email address.
    In contrast, the alternate email address that is listed under Information on the My profile page is used as a backup to your Office 365 email address for important notifications, including, for administrators, password resets.
