Today I decided to change the email address that is used to alert me about new forum posts. So I selected
BBO Discussion Forums
> Your control panel
> Settings
> Change Email Address
and filled out a form, only to get the error message "The entered email addresses do not match." This sounds like I had to input the new address twice, but there was only one input field in the form.
BTW, the reason for the address change is that the old address is a gmail address and gmail does not deliver any notification emails for new forum posts anymore. This is a problem since several years.

I just tried it, and there were 3 fields in the form:
New Email Address
Confirm Email Address
Password
New Email Address
Confirm Email Address
Password

Thanks Barmar, it worked now.
The browser interpreted the second and third field as login fields and filled them automatically with "mink" and my password. So it appeared to me that there was only one field to enter the address.
