Invite function does not work so using Add feature. Cannot add an address that is correct but am told is not.

Question

The address I am trying to add is webmaster@***********.com and I keep getting the message that this is not a valid e-mail address. How can I work past this? BTW this is a club membership group only and I have written permission from each person to add them.

Answer 1

That's a tought one.  The only thing I can think of is: did you check to make sure there were no spaces in the address?  Sometimes when someone sends me their address they typed a space in it, so when I copy it the space remains, and I get "this is not a valid address".  Check to make sure this didn't happen.  Also, check to make sure that you are spelling the ***************.com portion correctly.

Answer 2

it's not a valid address yahoo allows is what it means. yahoo doesn't verify each address prior to your adds. yahoo has  certain addresses that are not allowed and there's nothing you can do about it but see if they have a different address.
