Firefox shows my outdated e-mail address when forwarding

I was trying to forward a petition to other people to sign, but Firefox shows an outdated e-mail address, which I can no longer access because I'm not paying for the service. I have tried overriding the old address with the new one, but it doesn't work. How do I change the default to my current e-mail address?
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== When I canceled my Verizon service

Firefox doesn't do email, it's a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

I'm not techy enough to understand the solution.
Here's the history:
-- I've used Compuserve for 15 years, but CS doesn't do broadband so I went shopping.
-- I tried Verizon for broadband, and contacted Compuserve to let them know, but also told them I wanted to retain my e-mail address. We set up new billing for that at a reduced rate so that I would not be charged full price for dial-up.
-- Verizon gave me a new e-mail address, which I believe was so I could connect, using dial-up.
-- After a week, I was so disgusted with Verizon that I canceled it, sent all the equipment they had sent back and went back to using Compuserve on dial-up.
-- I then signed up for broadband, using DSL.extreme, and that worked for me. I am still using it today.
-- The problem is, something -- and I'm not sure what -- is still recognizing the now-defunct Verizon e-mail address as my active e-mail address.
-- Even on DSL extreme, I have things set up so that my old Compuserve e-mail address is the active one.
SO -- the questions to editmeister is -- when you refer to a "service provider", to which one are you referring? Based on what I have told you, what would you suggest?
All help would be appreciated.

  • Why do I find unknown e-mail addresses when I begin to type in a known address?

    I'm using an IMac and am up to date on my version of OSX, V10.8.4 and have discovered a problem with Mail. When I want to send an e-mail I will type in the address. The first letter of that address triggers a drop down box showing all the e-mail addresses starting with that letter that are in the system. I started to look thru the llist of addresses and found some e-mail addresses of people that are not in my address book and I have never sent to or received from. Where do they come from?

    As the folder indicates they were "Previous recipietns". Perhaps you replied some passed around emails from friends with more than one email address in the address panel (cc: or bcc:)?

  • I changed my e-mail address, but everytime I try to do an update on my imac it shows my OLD e-mail address and not the one that I am logged in with, I have tried to rectify this and cant.

  • Mail doesn't show me the e-mail address

    Mail should show me the e-mail address, but it doesn't. I mean.. if I receive a mail from a my friend and Mail thinks it's a spam mail, it put it in the spam directory.
    I drag and drop it in the inbox mails, but if I do that, the e-mail address and object disappear!
    If I click it, I can see the preview of the mail and the email address and object appear again, but if I try to reply to the e-mail, Mail doesn't know (again) the mail address where to send the reply.. so I need to type it by myself. Is it normal?
    Here a screenshot:
    http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/3755/mailbugig2.jpg

    Oh I see... I'm sorry, iGodess, I should have looked at your screenshot first (I thought you meant something else just by reading), I'm really sorry.
    Am I correct: You see the name but not the address in the mailbox viewer (the upper part).
    What I see in your screenshot is normal. I'm afraid you can't change that, at least I found no way.
    What you see in the mailbox viewer is the name of the sender as you would enter it in Mail.app > Preferences > Accounts > choose one account > Account Information > Full name.
    If he wouldn't enter anything there, his eMail address will show in place of the (missing) full name.
    Your other problem related to replying with no usable address automatically entered: I guess this doesn't happen with all your messages, correct?
    Does it only happen with one friend of yours?
    If so he might have defined his Reply-To header wrong, which also could be a cause his messages land in your junk folder: Mail.app thinks "this can't be legitimate".

  • I recently changed my e-mail address and have made the changes in my Apple account. But when I try to purchase an app from the App Store on my ipad, the sign in cue still shows my old e-mail address rather than my new one.

    Hi there. I am having difficulty buying apps from the App Store. I recently changed my e-mail associated with my apple account. when i try to purchase an app, the cue to sign in does not show my new e-mail, but still shows my old e-mail. when I put in my password, it does not work because my password is no longer associated with the old e-mail address. i don't understand why my old e-mail still shows up. Can someone help me?

  • Calendar Entries change to Device Default rather than associated e-mail address when upgraded

    Hi,
    I upgraded my Curve 8330 software to the latest. Once this was done, I noticed my calendar entries are now showing Device Default in the Send To field.  When I try to sync with my Outlook Calendar (2007), it won't sync these particular entries.  In actual fact, the same entries that are in my calendar (that were sync'd prior to upgrade) contain many of the entries that were associated with the e-mail address.  So, I got duplicate entries on my device.
    I tried going the route of doing a 1 way sync from my device to Outlook, but it, it wasn't recognizing the Device Default entries.  And I can't go the route of a 1 way sync from Outlook to my Device since I have since made many changes on my device.
    What can I do to get the Device Default calendar entries to sync (even 1 way sync) to my Outlook calendar?  I have hundreds of entries and I don't want to have to redo all of this each time I upgrade.  (Not even sure why my calendar entries flipped like this on my Curve to give me this problem in the first place).

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    1. Take a look at options-advanced options-default services.  The CICAL (calendar) and CMIME (messaging) should the email address originally associated with your BB.
    2. Entries in the device default will not sync with Outlook.
    3. Read this KB article paying particular attention to Cause 3.  http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB16063&sliceId=SAL_Pub...

  • My Apple ID on the i-pad keeps on saying that I need to have an e-mail address when I already have one help?

    I created an icloud account using my main e-mail address, no problem, since then, I have used it to send work to I-work.com.  Then today it asked me for a nother ID as I could not for some reason use the existing one.  So I created a new password, now when I try to use i-work it keeps telling me that there is no e-mail address associated with this accout, yet when I go into settings and Icloud everything looks the same.  Can anyone give me a clue????

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

  • I have spelt my name incorrectly on the icloud e-mail address when first registering. I wish to change my primary icloud address however I am unaware as to how to do this

    i also am no longer using my hotmail account which is my apple id.  I wish to change my apple id to a .me e-mail address. can i not do this?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • How to clear defunct mail address when typing in recipient name in Mail

    Just to keep this simple:
    I have a client that I email regularly, yesterday he changed his mail address, the old one is no longer valid and is completely out of use.
    I replaced the old one with the new one in Address Book, but now when I type the person's name in the To field in Mail, the old one still comes up in a list of suggestions made by Mail. How do I clear these suggestions?

    Look in the Previous Recipients list under the the Window menu.
