The email address has to be verified, but any of the verified email addresses can be used to reset passwords. There is no way to un-verify an email address besides deleting it and re-adding it.
- akerl_ 12y agoIf that's the case, I'll be reaching out to GitHub to clarify the wording once my test shows otherwise. I specifically pointed out that I was basing my understanding on the message they provide. EDIT: I've confirmed the wording doesn't match the execution, and I've send a message to GitHub
- benatkin 12y agoThanks! I sent them an email a year or two ago and they haven't addressed it. It is a bit of an edge case, and there's a workaround. So I'm not annoyed that they haven't fixed it, but I will be glad when they do.
