Is that a new email address created recently, or an old email address that was not used anywhere else? Please define 'not too long ago'.

With apologies, upon further review I see where I made my mistake, for the above did stem from a dated account, same one used and expressed in the OP. I had several email accounts opened at one time performing a weekly cleanup and got confused for a sec. Chalk this up as my first mistake for 2017.  ::)
