What should I do if I've forgotten what email address is associated with my membership?

You can ask our system to send a message to the email address associated with your membership telling you what that address is by visiting the login recovery page.

Please note that due to our privacy policy we will not, under any circumstances, disclose a membership's email address directly. The recovery form is the only way to request this information, and the recovery form will only send the information to the existing member contact address, so for this to be successful, you'll still have to find that address, and it has to work.

If you know what your contact email address is but you can no longer access it, or if you have no idea what the address is and cannot find our recovery emails, please see this related entry.
