I am trying to change my e-mail address to my work e-mail because I can get larger e-mails and it says my e-mail address has been banned. I tried it with 3 different e-mail addresses. How do I change my e-mail address? Thanks!

It is weird. It let me change it to my old work e-mail, but now it will not let me change it to my new Yahoo Address. Anyway, if there is a mod that sees this, please PM me. Thanks in advance!

I have tried 3 different Yahoo E-mail addresses and none of them work. Weird!?! I am just going to stick with my work e-mail, but find it strange that I cannot add a Yahoo E-mail address to my account. :spock:

I think virtually all freemail addresses (Yahoo and Hotmail as examples) may be banned as registered addresses. I believe this was done to prevent trolls from constantly re-registering in the forums.:annoyed:

It is unfortunate, since many people have Yahoo email addresses as their main email.

Yeah, I had my Yahoo E-mail Address up there for years, but decided to change it because it was running out of space. I have since put my work e-mail address. I am the e-mail admin at my company, so I should not get in trouble for using it for this :glee: Thanks for the info chimpmeister!

Hmmm mine's hotmail, but I guess it was hotmail since I registered so I'll make a note not to change my hotmail address.
