Default Urgent help needed: Admin's Email Address

All subscribed threads are getting email from an email address that I used during sign-up. I have since changed that ( a long time ago now) to something like renoadmin@gmail.com.

but suddenly today it is using back my old email address that I used during sign-up with forumer.com.

Whats happening? I checked under Configuration and the admin's address is still renoadmin@gmail.com but it is saying something else when ppl get their posts notifications.

I need urgent help to correct this. Thanks

my forum is at renotalk.forumer.com

Check your old and new email inboxes for activation, they require activation to change the owners email address.

I have a problem with the owners emain-address:

After the maintenance on server 16, I saw that the owners E-Mail-Adress was N/A. I updatet my address, got an E-Mail with an link in there to klick in order to validate my e-mail-adress. I klicked on the link, and the following page said, that my owner E-Mail-Adress is updated. But when i look into fSettings, there's still no owners E-Mail-Adress.

Holzi, on reading your post I checked it out on my forum and noticed the same problem
http://stephenchow.6.forumer.com

There's also another bug with the fDomain that might also have to do with the phpbb-update. If you call a domain for your forum our own, please check out this thread:

strange that other admins are having the same problems but nobody seems to be giving an answer for this.

i still cant change my admin's email address. actually it doesnt recognize the address in there but revert back to the address that I signed up with.

Please help!

To clarify, I also was mailed a confirmation message. I clicked the link provided to verify the new address. I performed this procedure twice over two weeks. While each attempt automatically states the address was updated successfully. It was not. While some seem to have been successful in this endeavor, I was not so lucky. It shouldn't be a matter of picking a reliable address from the start of a new forum. An option to update ownership, etc. should, IMO, be more fluid than it is at this time. It is my hope that this issue is, in fact, a bug. And one that can corrected so that our continued use of these forums can be as enjoyable as intended.

I have done the same, get the email for verification, verify, but it still does not work.
