You know, now and then e-mail accounts do glitch, and quit working for a bit.

Most the time it is only for a few minutes or a couple of hours, then whatever the problem is with the mail server gets fixed, and things are back to normal.

But I have lost access to an e-mail for a couple of weeks at least once before (the fellow who runs my web host was in the hospital for a time, and was not able to get the problem with the server fixed for a couple of weeks) and it can make it very hard to get in and do anything that requires being sent an e-mail.

And since you frequently have to have a message sent to your old e-mail to verify that you want to change to a new e-mail address ....

What about allowing a user to include a second e-mail as a back-up. It would be checked the same way the first one was, but when asking for an e-mail to be sent, one could click a check box or something, asking to use the back-up e-mail address. If the user had not provided a back-up e-mail address, then the check box would not appear, of course.

Just an idea ... what does anybody else think?


sounds good to me  Smiley
