I may not have enough information to help you but, if 'I understand correctly, this should work OK ...

1) Create the new e-mail address in Yahoo (or gmail) with the address you like (if it isn't already in use by someone else).
2) (This works with the Yahoo account I have - not sure if yours has the same setup)
Log into the old e-mail account and confirm the new account by sending an e-mail to your new e-mail address. If the e-mail shows up in the new account, you are all set.
You may want to have all new mail sent to your old e-mail address show up in the new account. If so, go into Settings -> Accounts-> Edit -> Forward, and enter your new e-mail address in the box and click Save.

Hope this helps.
MR

Hi, firstly never EVER use the ISP given address, it is about as secure as putting a fiver out in the road!
Get yourself an email address from something like yahoo and it will go anywhere you do. For example i have had mine at yahoo.co.uk for over 20 years and 4 addresses and used it in many countries.
If you use say an Orange given one then if you change to Free you will lose the Orange one.
You can for example get [email protected] and it is if you want yours for life.

I have changed my broadband and I am haveing trouble trying to change my email address .my new is [email protected]

What exactly do you want to do? Do you want to change the email address you are using for your Paypal account?

If you want to change the email address you are using for Paypal, you really don't have to change it at all. What you should do is to add another email address for Paypal. You can do this by, after logging in to Paypal, point your mouse to the Profile link, and then click on the Add/Edit Email link. Then click on the Add button to add a new email address. You can use this new email address in logging in to the same Paypal account you are using before.

Need to chang my e-mail address

Log in to your PayPal account as usual with your (old) email address and PayPal password.

Then go to My Account -> Profile -> Add or edit email and
  • Add the new email address first
  • Make it the Primary address
  • then remove the old one.
You can keep your existing PayPal password, no need to change that.

Linda,
I'm a little confused. Do you mean your Mail program that comes with your OS is not working? and you've changed your email address with Gmail?

If this is the case, you need to change the email address in "preferences." Open your mail program, click "Mail" in the top bar, then select "Preferences" in the menu. A box will pop up. Change the email address in accounts. You'll need to type the entire address ([email protected]) If your password has changed, change that too. Make sure the incoming (pop.gmail.com) and outgoing servers (smtp.gmail.com) are set for Gmail. If this is not your problem, please clarify.
