Can't change email addy


I keep trying to change my email over to a new email account, but it hasn't seemed to work. It says the old account should receive an email, so I can validate it, but the old account hasn't received an email. I tried it last week, and it tried again late last week, and again today.

Am I doing something wrong or is there an additional step?

Thank you.

. If you are not using Firefox, try it. This site is optimized for FF and some weird problems crop up for those using IE.

. Oh well. It was worth a try. If one of Robot's minions doesn't chime in soon, try PMing StumpChunkman.

Wierd, it's not given me a problem before. Is the new e-mail changed on your page and not receiving?
(you posted the topic in the right place, admin should pick it up at some point)
