Environment

Secure Password Administrator 1.0

Situation

Can I register my account with Secure Password Administrator if I do not have a valid email address?

Does the email address that I use when I register with Secure Password Administrator have to be a real address?

Resolution

You must supply a unique entry during registration since the email address is the unique key in the database. If your entry is not in email format, for example, an employee ID number, you will get a warning, but will be allowed to complete the registration. A phony email address will work as long as it is unique in the database. Secure Password Administrator will check that the format is valid, but not that the email address actually exists.
