I don't care if you are using a fake email address BUT PLEASE turn off notification of Private messages in your profile (it sends an email to you telling you have a PM).  Just use the pop up notification instead.

I am getting a lot of failed delivery messages and its because of this issue.  

Thanks! :thumb:

I know I can do it, and have, but I want people to try to do it themselves.

Sorry, guilty.   :oops:

Though it's not really a fake email.  I really have the email address, it's just that somehow it found it's way onto a spam list, and now gets dozens of new mails per day, so I've stopped checking it.

I'm sure there are a lot of others in the same position, with all the !&%(@* spammers out there nowadays.

hahahaha I am running around with a fake email address, J/K why would someone want to put a fake email addy here.  Why even have one listed at all.  There are alot of people that have not listed there email for a reason, not sure why.   But they have there reasons.

Well you have to sign up with an email address fake or not.  I don't care if its fake as long as email notification is off.

You can update your email address by clicking on "update profile"  or click on this link --> http://www.gstwins.com/forum/profile.php?mode=editprofile

I have a real address but I am glad I looked because I left the h out of earthlink. I corrected it so if anybody ever sent me a private message, sorry, I did not get it. :)

No you would get the PM whether or not your email address is good.  Its just I would get a undeliverable email response in the gstwin mailbox.
