Launchpad itself

Query on LP accounts and mail alias

Asked by Dave Morley

I had setup an account when I had my old .hotmail.com account. I've not had this for some time. When I got my gmail account I must of setup a new account and not realised. Is there a way I can merge the two as I can't receive the mail from my old hotmail.com account? The accounts to merge are davmor2-gmail and davmor2 (the old hotmail account)

Also I was made a Kubuntu member on the 17-04-2008 but I don't seem to have email alias setup yet can it be set up to the new Launchpad account if it can be merged?

Cool E-mail allias is now in place so I just need the accounts merging and maybe the e-mail alias updating

You can just merge them yourself, visiting https://edge.launchpad.net/people/+requestmerge -- you can manage the emails once that's done.

I would love to do this Christian but in order to do so you need to be in receipt of both email accounts. I no longer have access to nor can I get access to <email address hidden>.

So I can not do the merge I've tried.

Christian Oooops I think we were talking at cross purposes and now I think I might of screwed stuff up right royally :(

What I wanted was the ability to lose the -gmail off of my account.

I think I've partially done this now by setting up a new davmor2 account that links to my blueyonder email account the trouble is the merge hasn't happened correctly because I still don't have access to the hotmail.com account.

It's all my fault but never mind.

There is only 2 things that can happen now either you can wave your magic wand and they get merged, or I start the process all over again :(

Can you help at all?
