How Does a New Username Affect Your WA Email AddressIf you change your username, there are 2 things that can be done:We add your new username as an alias to the old email account, but the email address itself does not change (i.e., you keep your old email address). Then, any mail sent to either address will go to your original email address. In this way you will not lose any old emails, and any mail sent to your new username will go there as well. The name on the account will change to reflect your new username, so the transition will be almost unnoticeable.We delete your old account and establish a new email address in your new username. Using this option, all old mail would be lost, but your old username would never show up on correspondence, or in the address book.
