I have a problem...
I've stopped using SETI@home some time ago, the email account I used was
"antonio.mch@8gpi.com".
This domain "8gpi.com" no longer exists.
So, I can not recover the password that i forgot, because the recovery will
send a mail to my old email account that no longer exists ...
Is there any way to change the mail attached to my account from
antonio.mch@8gpi.com, to antonio.mch@sapo.pt? Without loosing the stats?

Register the domain yourself, set up the email account at a hosting
site, and send yourself the password.

However, it'll only be of use for a very short while, as the original
S@h project will probably shut down in the next couple of months in
favor of the BOINC version.

Of course, they've been saying "soon" for about a year. Having returned
62,710 results in the original project, and resurrected two of my better
crunchers (motherboard problems), I'm trying for 65,000.

Unless you have a lot of credit on the old project that you want to
show up on your BOINC account, I suggest you just create a BOINC 
account and start crunching there.
