I'm having an email problem

Could an administrator please contact me? Either a message or an email would be fine.

I want to change the email address where I receive AN updates, etc. from my gmail account to my yahoo account. I can't do it because I'm told the yahoo account is "in use" by someone else. If it is, it's got to be in use by me because it's my email account. But I also can't log in using the yahoo account information either.

Thanks,

Rocky

PS: On three separate occasions over the past year or so, I've used the "Report an Issue" page, but I've never received a response.

Im not an administrator, and since that is a volunteer system I don't know when someone will contact you. Maybe this is what you did, but here's what I was thinking: in the more or less upper right hand corner there is your screen name, and below that a list, the bottom item is "Settings." Clicking on settings takes you to the page to change your email account. If thats what you already did, and it doesn't work, I don't know what to do. I'm told prayer doesnt work either.

Correct, SB. That's exactly what I've repeatedly tried to do. Here's what I get...

We're Sorry

The email address has already been registered. Please choose another.

If I could log in using that email, possibly I could just "leave" AN and free up that email for use with my "real" account.

But when I try to log in using the yahoo email, here’s what I get…

A problem occurred

There is no account with the email address xx-xxxx@yahoo.com.

But your "prayer" comment cracked me up!
