Forgotten Passwords

If you do not know or have forgotten your password, and can't log on, you may request to have your password sent to you via email. Click here to request your password. We recommend that you change your password once you have logged on, in order to keep your Christian eMail Service user account secure.

Change Your Account Profile

You may store personal information in your user account with Christian eMail Service. Providing demographic information allows the service to further customize itself to your needs, but all information that you provide is strictly optional. If you have concerns about your privacy, please view our Privacy Policy. In order to update or change any personal information in your account, simply click on Change Account Profile on your Account Controls page. On the profile page, simply enter the information into the form fields provided, then click Update Profile. Your new information will be sent to the user database, and should be visible in the form fields after the update, and you should see a message indicating your update was successful. If you receive an error message, please send us an email, including the text of the error message, for more specific information.

Change Your Email Address

If you change your email address, you must enter the new address in your user account, or you will no longer be able to receive email through our service. To make the change, you need to click on the Change Email link on your controls page. Enter your new email address into the form field provided. Take care that your new email address is spelled correctly and is working properly before you change it. Once you submit the new address, it is permanently changed in our database.

Delete Your Account

If you no longer wish to keep an account with Christian eMail Service, you may delete it at any time, provided you do not own any lists. If you are a ListOwner, you must first delete all existing lists from your account before you can delete your user account. All deletions are permanent, and deleted information cannot be recovered, so do not delete anything unless you are completely sure you wish to do so. In order to delete your user account, click on the Delete Account link on your controls page. Enter your email address and password into the form fields provided to confirm the deletion of your account, and click the Delete button. You will receive a message and a goodbye email to confirm your deletion was successful. For further help or questions on deleting your account, please send us an email.
