Hi, to change your alternate email, log into your Yahoo! Mail account, hover over the gear icon in the upper right corner, and select Account Info. (You may be prompted to enter your password again.) Then click the Update your contact information link. Enter a new email address next to Email 1 (for the first alternate email address) or Email 2 (for the second alternate). Then click the Save button at the bottom of the page.
