• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

I have a g-mail account as my only mail provider, I no longer have a pop3 account. However, as I've known, gmail is unacceptable as an e-mail address, which forces me to use my friends account (this one) I've had about 200 posts since I started using his account 1.5 months ago.. I'm very frequent to the forum, and I HAD an account previously, however it's since been deleted (I believe). Is there any way I can have my own account created using my e-mail address - cjshull@gmail.com ?
 
The filter that controls all of the email is a universal setting and cannot be changed to allow single permissions. It filters as a usergroup (registered members) and is all or nothing, sorry. PM me if you need more information.:)
 
As I say in another thread

You can get your OWN domain name for $10.00 a year or less.
You can use eznoc.com's free redirectors to send those emails to any account you wish.
Or, they will host POP3 email WITH your account.

at most, a $20 annual investment, and you have full fledged, pop3 email at your own domain that you can use with outlook (or your other favorite email client) which is ALSO web-accessible email.


In this day and age, us tech savvy folks who don't have our own domains shouldn't consider ourselves tech savvy.

just find a free POP3 email, or wait for offers to roll in :p there are very many alternatives to the big 3 free email providers...
 
Like I said, if you have a specific question concerning email registration, feel free to PM me for help :)
