Alternative e-mail address
In the "User Profile" section of "My Profiler" we can define other e-mail addresses. I would like an option to use one of those for PM e-mail notifications.

You can only set one email address on this website (it is found in the "Your Account" section). This one is also used for email notifications. In the section "User Profile" you mentioned, you can set the IDs of different IM clients, not email addresses. I would never enter here email addresses because they can be plainly seen by other users and by spiderbots.

I'm NOT asking to change anything in Your Account-section. I'm asking to add functionality to the User Profile-section. A sort of "Send PM e-mail notifications this way instead" radiobutton, maybe.

As for the spiderbots argument. For me the damage(if any) has already been done since the rule changed about which type of e-mail address that was allowed to be used when registering.

I know what your asking. I just wanted to warn you, that you misuse the existing fields. Your email address you have entered under "MSN Messenger Sign-in Name" in the User Profiler doesn't belong there. Anybody can see it and also bots which search the net for email adresses to send spam to you. You probably get a lot of spam on that account.
This field is there to enter a user name of the MSN Instant messaging client if you have one. This way other users can contact you if they wish to.
