Topic: Joining & Leaving Lists

I changed ISPs or webmail providers, how do I change my email address on the list?

If you're on a list hosted at Yahoogroups, Topica or Smartgroups, you can visit their websites and change your email address there. At Yahoogroups, it can be a bit complex, you might start by reading the Yahoogroups Help Page (or if that link is no longer correct, login at Yahoogroups and click on My Preferences, then click on the Help link in the upper right corner of the window). At Topica, click on the My Topica link, then on the menu on the left, there's a link to add email addresses, follow that procedure and after you've completed it, you can return to My Topica, click on the list name and select your new email address for that list. On SmartGroups, login and go to My Details and you can also check out the SmartGroups Help Page for additional info.

If the list is hosted on another service or a private server, then you'll most likely need to subscribe to the list with your new email address and then unsubscribe with your old email address. Check the list website if there is one, that ever helpful and important Welcome message, contact the listowner or as a last resort, ask politely! on list.
