Managed to change my email address from Yahoo to gmail on the phone app.
On PC our Great Food Forum still has my yahoo email. Clicking to change it I received warning "external link - cannot guarantee security" so I bailed out.
Also had problem on phone logging in to confirm change - would not recognize username or password. Strangely enough I could still go back and was logged in to read.
Need help getting out of the mess I created. All because I deleted Yahoo email from my phone to solve a technical matter

I tried the link myself and got the same thing. Hovering over the link, the link is SUPPOSED to take you to

www.proboards.com/account/settings

I don't know how that redirect gets inserted but you were right to bail. Instead, copy the address string above (in pink) and open a new tab in your browser and paste it into the address bar and press 'Enter' key. That should take you to the correct page to change the email address associated with your account. Don't click that pink link. Copy and paste it to your browser address bar. I want you to make sure you see exactly the address you are going to.
