Dear All,

Thanking you, in advance, for any advice here. 

I am currently using a website, and I use it regularly.  Currently, I have just changed my e-mail address.  I am trying to update the website I mentioned above, but cannot.  Instead, I get an 18 digit error code. 

Could this have anything to do with permissions, ie.  the website does not give me te required permissions.  I cannot update the information, because I do not have the correct permissions.  How could I change the permissions using the Firefox probwer?

Yours Marek

In some cases, a change of the user's e-mail will send a verification mail to the new e-mail. Read all the instructions carefully from that site.

Do you need to enter this email address when you enter that website (username is email)?
