Changing one's email address
Nov. 14th, 2008 08:37 amI am starting to get myself ready for changing broadband providers. O2 (thanks, fj and spwebdesign) seems to provide a better service than BT, and I would hope to be able to change before the end of the year. One thing that I need to do is change email addresses on the scads of emailed newsletters and other lists that I receive (and there are plenty of them). I am unsure whether cancelling BT Broadband will also automatically remove my current email address. In any event, btinternet.com seems to be bouncing lots of emails for me, saying that I am not a subscriber. So, I will make that reality as soon as I can.
I have discovered that sometimes changing addresses on these lists is well-nigh impossible. I have had all manner of interactions with websites. Some allow an easy change, others allow it, but bury the menus needed to accomplish it so deeply that you end up establishing a new account and then unsubscribing from the old one. This is all most annoying.
It will take at least until the end of the month to be certain that I've changed all email addresses that I care about to the new one. Then I will monitor during December to ensure that I've gotten all of them. Only then will I try switching over.
