Title: Setting up a recovery email for lost passwords
Post by: Thiggy01 on December 27, 2018, 08:58:50 PM
How do I set up a recovery email for my account in case i lose my password?
I can't find any options to that on my profile page.
Already searched the forum but found nothing.

Your profile shows:
Code:
Email: 	hidden
I assume that means you've set it already.
If not, go to Account Related Settings (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2512114;sa=account) and edit it.

I just found a thread created by theymos.about the recovering of hack accounts or lost passwords and it might be better to look for that newly created thread for theymos has decided to go for an old fashion way to recover bct accounts. Just send an email to the email address being provided so that your concerns and issues will be address by a team that was created for.the matter.

Yeah, I read that. If email recovery doesn't work we still have a way to recover our account by emailing recoveries...@bitcointalk.org with a signature.
That's great.
