Thanks for the link!

[azurelunatic]

You're welcome! I've been eagerly anticipating this for so long.

Thank you for any part you played in making this happen.

[azurelunatic]

I cannot take any credit for any part of the implementation, but I am doing my best to ensure that knowledge of this is spread far, wide, and fast.

[leora.livejournal.com]

Well, then - thank you for all of the other stuff you do. :) You do enough stuff on LiveJournal that you certainly deserve more thanks than you get.

Whoever is behind this, tell them they have my undying love.

[azurelunatic]

I relayed that to IRC!

I have posted the link in my own LJ and have urged my readers to kindly pass this on. I'll most likely repost the link several times to catch everybody.

And coffeechica says it's been relayed to the appropriate people. :D

So far all reports at my end is that it works exactly as it's supposed to. I was able to remove the original (and long dead) address, as were others.

Doesn't work for me?

I only get the option to delete the one email address I added after the current one, not any of the half-dozen I added before.

(Those are all still mine, so there's no immediate danger, but I still wonder whether there's something I'm missing.)

[azurelunatic]

From what I know of how it's supposed to work, you should be able to delete any prior as long as you've held the current validated for over six months.

Any weirdness is probably support time. I'm just the loudmouth on this, rather than troubleshooter.

Hm, as I read the emailmanage page I've had the current address (which is not the first nor the last one on the list) since 2008-05-23 (the time the last address on the list got deactivated), which is more than six months.

Perhaps I'll give it a week or so in case the release is not actually live yet?

Any way, thanks for announcing the change!
