I need to change my email address without disrupting the group where I am the sole owner/moderator.?

For several years, I've been the owner/moderator of a group which has about 3,500 subscribers. Now I need to change my email address. I added the new email address, but want to make sure I don't cause problems with the group when I delete the original email address. Any tips I should know before proceeding?I need to change my email address without disrupting the group where I am the sole owner/moderator.?If you would like to be able to post messages from different email addresses than the one subscribed to a group, you need to add them to your Yahoo! Groups account as %26quot;alternate posting%26quot; addresses.



To add an alternate posting addresses:



1. Sign in and go to the My Email Preferences page:



http://groups.yahoo.com/myprefs



2. Under the %26quot;Options%26quot; column to the right of the subscribed email address, click on the %26quot;Edit%26quot; link.



3. In the %26quot;Alternate Posting Addresses%26quot; section, enter up to 5 additional addresses you would like to use to post messages.



4. Click the %26quot;Save Changes%26quot; button when you're finished.



The alternate posting email address allows you to post messages from an address other than the one specified when you joined Yahoo! Groups. If possible, and if necessary, Yahoo! Groups automatically sets the alternate address set when you reply to your confirmation email.



For example, if you register under the address %26quot;Joe@companyname.com%26quot; and reply to the confirmation email from Yahoo! Groups, you may see an address such as %26quot;Joe@mail.companyname.com%26quot; listed as your alternate email address. This is because your system sends messages from a specific mail server on your company's network. Yahoo! Groups automatically detects this and fills in the alternate address.



If you need further assistance regarding this concern, I suggest that you contact the Yahoo! Groups customer support team. Please click the link below.
