Change Google Orkut email settings

You can have orkut notifications sent to a different email address by changing the primary email address in your profile. Please note that changing your orkut email address will not change your orkut login.

To change your email address in orkut, follow these steps:

1. Click edit profile below your picture.
2. Click the contact tab.
3. Click edit below your primary email address.
4. Enter your new primary email address and click the update button.
5. A verification email will be sent to your new primary email account. To complete the change, please click on the link in that email.

*Make sure you include all of your email addresses in the secondary email fields to ensure that friend requests sent to your alternate accounts reach you. Don't worry, these additional email addresses won't be visible to other orkut members.

If you'd rather receive orkut notifications in your orkut message center, here's how you can adjust your preferences:

1. Click settings on the left sidebar of your profile.
2. Choose the notifications tab.
3. Check the message box for notes you'd like to receive in your orkut message center.
4. Remember to un-check the email box for messages you don't want to receive by email.
5. Click save changes.
