Administrator Changing Member Email

[mevans]

It would really be nice to allow administrators the ability to change a member's email, perhaps by sending an email to the member having them click a link which verifies the change and makes it effective.

Currently ward clerks can change member emails. Do they need to give me access to MLS?

I suggest talking with your bishop to see if he wants you to be able to do this. If so, he'll need to get you called as an assistant ward clerk. When I was called, my bishop specifically wanted me to focus on helping ward members use the online tools and they determined that I needed to be an assistant membership clerk to get the needed permissions. I have access to MLS, but I don't go there very often; another assistant membership clerk focuses on the MLS side of things with membership records, ordinances, etc.

The best way is to go to https://account.churchofjesuschrist.org/ as that will update the account recovery address as well. I'm not sure if changing it in other areas will do that.

Changing it in other area's will not update that.

Agree. The only way to update the account recovery address is in "accounts".

What I'm not sure of is if updating recovery email will update it in other places. At one time there was verbiage that said it did.

Once you verify your email in Church Account it will be picked up by the membership system (as long as your Church Account is correctly connected to your membership)

Do you know if there are any plans within "Accounts" to enable members to request removal or otherwise remove their email address from the Church's email address blacklist?

Sometimes email addresses are incorrectly added to blacklists and there needs to be a way to appeal the decision (which in all honestly was most likely an automated process not a human being) to block delivery of emails to an address.

I think a button that says "Revalidate Email" that utilizes the Amazon SES API to automatically remove the address from the suppression list would be great:
