Changing of e-mail

Post by Eraser » Sun Nov 06, 2005 6:04 pm

Is there any way to change the e-mail which my account was created with?
At least I don't see any possibility to do that.
I would really need to change my e-mail, because of the problems with mail server.

Edit: OK. I'm stupid and blind. :P "Problem" solved.  ;)

Still have a problem.
I changed my e-mail on JForge DAYS ago, but there is still this text:

How long will it take, that my new e-mail would be the active one?
Is this change being confirmed manually by admins?

This seems to be a bug in sourceforge.  I have also tried to change my email three times to two different email addresses.  On all occasions I received a confirmation email, but when I visited the link I received an error.  It was not until the third email that the change worked.  Note that this email is sent to the original email address, so you will have no way of confirming if you mail server is not functioning.  This seems to be a security measure, however it is somewhat of a design flaw if the old email address is no longer valid.  Can an administrator take a look at this?
