Regarding Mules - Question that hasn't been answered yet
 

Hi I'm new and I've been reading up on how every account is allowed to have one mule,

but I haven't been able to work out whether you need to use a different email address to make the mule,

I tried to make one with my email address and it gave me a link to click if I had forgotten my password...

so yeah, I guess my question is... does your mule have to have a different email address to your "overall" account...???

Thanks in advance

Yes, your mule has to have a different email address than your Main account. It is how the system works to keep accounts separate, as you can see users can sign in using their email as well as their username.. so if two accounts were under one email that'd be impossible. It's for security reasons as well as a place to send emails, and accounts are logged not only by username but email in the system so it's impossible to keep two on one.

Sorry if that seems a bit repetitive... I realize that now..

hi
 

Thank you so much, I was searching for hours trying to find out until I realised that no-one had posted it yet, although to some extent it is probably obvious, lol...

So, thank you once again... oh, this is resolved so they can lock the thread now if they want *grin*
