Linking MSN address to Google drive?

[InBetweenDays]

I use an msn email address for almost all of my email needs because I've had it forever. I do have a gmail address associated with my google account but I don't ever use it for general emailing. Whenever someone sends me a calendar invite, something in Google drive, or through Google chat they send it to my msn account (because hardly anyone knows my gmail address). Then I need to request access from gmail, which is feasible but kind of a pain.



I want to add my msn address as an "alternate email" to avoid having to do this extra step. Only problem is when I try to do so it says "this address is already used with another Google account". And I have NO idea what google account that is. I've check H and the kids accounts, none of them list my msn email as an alternate email.



Maybe I created something YEARS ago and don't remember doing so? Is there any way to see which google accounts use my msn address as an alternate email address? Or does anyone know of other ways of linking the two accounts?

Do you just need to see the events in Google calendar?

georgeglass, no, I'm hoping that when people send me things through Google drive, but send it to my msn address, I can just click on the link and be able to open it. Right now I get a message that says I don't have access (since the email was sent to my msn address but my google drive is tied to my gmail address). So then I have to request access from my gmail account or message the sender and ask them to resend it to my gmail account.

I'm hoping to add my msn address as an alternate address in my google account so it will recognize them both as me and will let me access the documents whether they're emailed to my msn account or my gmail account.

Problem is, it seems like my msn address is already tied to an (unknown) google account.
