You should check your account periodically to ensure that the e-mail address we have for you is current. This is because if you forget your password, I send the link to reset it ONLY to whatever e-mail address is on file for you. It's an automated process, so I can't send that link anywhere else!

How to update your e-mail address:

1. Go to your User CP>>Edit E-mail & Password.

2. Enter your present password to continue.

3. Skip the "Edit Password" section and go down to "Edit E-Mail."

4. Under "New E-Mail Address", enter your new e-mail address.

5. Enter it again under "Confirm New E-mail Address." The two fields must match.

6. Hit "Save Changes."

7. That's it! You may need to log back into the forum again when you're done.

Last, Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail and other free e-mail service addresses are allowed, so if your regular e-mail address changes frequently due to work, school or whatever reasons, you may want to consider setting up a free e-mail address to use for the forum so you don't have to constantly update your account whenever your regular address changes. But do whatever works best for you!

When I go back to the UserCP it's back to the rocketmail account. What gives with this ???
