Create second email address

Hi,

I want to set up a second email address that does not include my name for shopping purposes and to make it difficult for scammers to send me emails using my name.

I logged in and went to profile, but could not ADD an extra email address under 'log in' or 'contact email' as the system seemed to want to replace my main email address with a new one. 

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Bootsie25

@Bootsie25 : EE does not create new email addys. It just lets you use existing email addys got from some email provider as your login username to EE a/c's.

Do you you already possess this new email addy? If so, you could set up another EE a/c's using this email addy but I can't see how it would used for shopping purposes or to prevent scammers. Your EE login details are not involved when you go shopping on online sites.
