Change name of email address?

Ooohhhh.....I made a mistake setting up someones yahoo email account :( I put their name plus .co.uk as their address, but when they printed their business cards, they had .ie at the end of them (all 5,000 of them!) Now, i know i can set up an alternate email, but need the .ie address which, when i send a mail to, comes back as MAILER DAEMON - basically, the address that i want officially says it's not in use, but it is when i try to sign up. Does anyone know how and if i can access the Irish address? Hope that doesn't sound too confusing....

What i suggest you do is scrap that account and start again.



Go onto the account then follow this link: https://edit.yahoo.com/config/delete_use鈥?/a>



delete the account.



NOW, go to the correct Y!A site,, http://answers.yahoo.com/ http://uk.answers.com/ etc...



and sign up. If you do it from there, it SHOULD work, then you will have a proper e-mail in the right site.
