How can I remove my e-mail address from Yahoo groups?

Secondary email address and Yahoo Groups?

• I recently created a secondary email address for my Yahoo account. Not the alternate that Yahoo asks for when You set up an account, but a secondary email address for the account. (under Mail Options then under Mail Addresses, it lets you set up secondary email addresses) I am trying to use the secondary address for some of my Yahoo Groups, but cant get it to come up as possible addresses available to use. I created a profile for the address and associated the yahoo groups to that profile, but it is still showing my main email address. Can anyone show me how to get the secondary address up?

• Answer:

  In order to use an email address for Yahoo! Groups, the address must be verified. The easiest way to set up your account is to use the Membership Wizard. The wizard will show all of the email addresses you currently have available for use in Yahoo! Groups. Any unverified addresses will be listed at the bottom of the second page. Next to the address will be a Verify link. Click on the link to generate a verification email that will be sent to you at that address. Follow the instructions contained in the email to complete the process. If the email address you wish to use is not listed, click on the Add new email address link. If you are having difficulty verifying an address, please read the following troubleshooting steps. The email never arrives If you are not getting the verification email at all, please make sure you are using a valid email address. If you have tried to verify your alternate email address several times and you still never receive the mail although your address is valid, we recommend asking your ISP if they are blocking any mail from Yahoo!. If you have your mail forwarded, you may not receive the verification email. Also, please note that while the mail will arrive quickly, it is not instantaneous. In some cases, the email may be delayed several hours due to Internet traffic and the email delivery route. If you and your ISP are not blocking any email and if it has been over 24 hours since you've tried to verify your alternate email address, please let us know. No code in the email If you are receiving the verification email, but there is no code in the body of the email (around the middle of the email, surrounded by asterisks), you may not be viewing the correct email. The Groups verification email is different from the email you received when you first registered for your Yahoo! account. However, if you are viewing the correct email and cannot see a confirmation code, please forward this email to us. Please send it as regular text, not as an attachment. We will then investigate the problem further. Alternate email address did not match If you have received the verification email with the code and you've followed the instructions, but have received an error that your email address did not match, it is possible that you have used a different email address than the one on record for your account. If these addresses are different, the verification will not work. Please note that you cannot verify your "@yahoo.com" email address. Your alternate email address is the non-Yahoo! address you specified when you registered for your account. In order to check what email address you have with us, go to your My Groups page and click on Email Preferences. Incorrect password If your password did not work with the verification code and alternate email address, please make sure you are using the correct password. This password is the same one you use with your Yahoo! ID in order to access the different areas of Yahoo!. It is not your security key password or password on your alternate email address. It must be your regular Yahoo! password, entered exactly as you would enter it when signing into your account. Invalid code If you receive a message that the confirmation code is invalid, please make sure that the code in your email matches the code that you have entered into the confirmation page. If it was not automatically entered for you, we highly recommend copying and pasting the code into the code field. Copying and pasting the code may prevent errors since some letters or numbers may look similar. The code can be found about halfway through the confirmation email, surrounded by asterisks.
