Need To Change Email Address - Paw Talk

Deja · #1 09-07-2003, 08:16 PM

My current email address is being plagued with incoming viruses. Apparantly, it's also being used as a valid "Reply To" address when the virus is being sent to others.
My inbox is getting clogged with not only the sobig virus, I'm getting dozens of auto-responses from the mail servers that are flagging and sending *me* the reply that the email I'm sending them can't be sent...yadda, yadda, yadda. I've also gotten a trojan-horse. I'm at my wits end!

I don't know what else to do- So- I set up a new email address.

I will keep my old one active until I can notify people of my new one.

How do I change it with the forum?

Thank you for your help.

go into your profile, then edit profile... you change it in there!

I had the same problem for a while (getting mail saying I was sending out a virus that I KNOW I did NOT have... finally though that seems to have stopped.

Thanks, Kay... I wasn't sure if I could just go do that *duh*

You worded it exact! That's what is happening to me... mail saying I am sending out a virus that I know I don't have!

And- Norton is flagging incoming mail by the ton with that **&^%!! Sobig virus!!

I thought it was stopping too - I had a two day break then BAM- it's back worse than before. Maybe by changing my address I can end it for good!
