Bernie.
Your email address has nothing to do with which mail program you are using.
When you change ISP's, you will have to change email address unless you are using a gmail address or similar (or have your own domain name).

Your mail program is like the car you use to go to the postoffice.
Change cars and you still go to the same postoffice.
Change towns and you go to a different postoffice but still in the old car.

Got my new 'puter, Margaret has set it up for me with Windows 7 cause she didn't want to be sweeping up the remains after I'd chucked a dummy spit trying to understand windows 8.1 :lol: The screen is so wide I have to look from one side to the other to get the full picture, the old one I had to scroll from one side to the other to see the full picture 8-) Very flash, nice light touch keys that are back lite, and they all work with only one press :D

I wish the boss would sell it.
It won't do what I want,
But exactly what I tell it!"

Be FRUITFUL & happy!
