Hi Brad (or anyone)-
I need to change my Email address, my old one is no longer in existence.

My new address nsavage3@comcast.net.

Can you change this, or tell me how to do it?

Thanks. Nick.

Hi, James. At the top of the page click on "my profile" then click on "update my profile" and change you email address. Then at the bottom of that page click "update". [Smile]

FYI just so you know, once you update your email address, the system will force-change your password for security reasons. If you want to change the password to something you can easily remember (since the server passwords are rather confusing), just go back into "my profile" and change the password to whatever you want and click SUBMIT. The change is instantaneous.

Also you just posted your email address within the body of your post. You are now an open target for spammers. I would seriously recommend you edit that out of your post. Once you update your email address in your profile, other members can retrieve it and yet the way the scripting is set up, your address is protected from spambots from finding it. [Wink]
