[bcab] Re: Please can you help a friend with a Google question?

Colin,

Thanks for the first message on the new list.  I am not sure about the first
part of the question but I would certainly switch the group subscriptions
over as soon as possible.  Some groups, I don't know about Google, will
check the email address of any message and/or will send a confirmation
message to the subscribed address before it will make the change.  If the
original account is closed it could cause problems. 


Cheers,
 
Derek Naysmith

Greetings,

I have received a request which I am unable to answer so am passing it on in
hopes somebody else can help my friend.

Hello, I wonder if someone can help me with the following problems please.

Firstly, when I set up my account I did not fill in the nickname field but
left it blank.  As a result of an eventual need to change my e-mail address
I was looking on the site and accidentally put in a nickname within my
account which I can not remove.  Is it possible for me to remove it and if
so how.

Secondly, When I change my e-mail address I will be going from a dialup
account to a broadband account, therefore, although I understand the idea of
entering the account using the old address and then changing to
the new address which is described in the help section.   I am not
certain how this works if I have to do this after my dial-up account which
contains the address with witch I signed up, has been closed prior to my
changing my address.

Basically, Should I change all my google groups subscriptions to my new
broadband address, (witch is already active), before closing my current
e-mail address?

Thank you in advance for your help on these two questions

Colin Howard looks forward to hearing from you.
