Teams displays wrong email account after I have logged in.

When I sign in to use Teams, I use an account named "******@mydomain.com". I use the Microsoft Authenticator to authenticate my identity. The login usually succeeds. I am using the Linux version of Teams. I am not accessing Teams in a browser.

After logging in to Teams, my account is displayed using a different email address, "******@somedomain.com". I do not know from where this other account comes, but I definitely want to remove all reference to it. How do I get rid of that erroneous reference to that account???

I should mention, too, that when someone invites me to a Teams meeting using "******@mydomain.com", the URL I receive never leads me to enter the meeting. I can log in to Teams using that URL, but I never see the meeting to which I have been invited.

    Thank you, Nik.

    At https://account.live.com/names/Manage in the Account alias section there is only one email address. It is marked as the primary alias. There are no other aliases displayed.

    Hi AmblyoMoron,

    Thanks for your post on the community forum. I'm Nik, an independent advisor here to assist you with this.

    To narrow down the issue, could you please go to https://account.live.com/names/Manage and check if you see another email address linked as an alias to your Microsoft account?

    Do you see any difference in sign-in preference from the earlier set on your Microsoft account?

    To know more about Change the email address or phone number for your Microsoft account, see:

    Regards
