If you use gmail, and Aeroplan will let you put a plus sign, just do [email protected], [email protected], etc. Or stick dots in. canadiancow and canadian.cow all go to the same place, but Aeroplan might treat them as different.

Surely before they do something as drastic as deleting an account they'll send another warning. As to sharing one, wouldn't that be great? :-)

Funnily enough, I have not received any email for my daughter. I guess Aeroplan has decided that she is the primary owner of my
email address, and that she can keep it while everyone else ( including me) must change.

Well, I just got the second batch of emails asking me to change the emails. I'll ignore these as well, and see what happens.

They e-mailed me twice, once for each of our two accounts.

Aeroplan Email Profile Nonsense!
Just wondering if anyone else has received annoying emails from Aeroplan demanding that their email address be changed.
It seems that in the process of "upgrading" their systems Aeroplan and/or Air Canada can no longer accommodate more than one account per email address!
No longer can husbands and wives and children share an email account for Aeroplan purposes. Same if any children have Aeroplan memberships; each require a separate email address. For the benefit of anyone interested, here is the email received from AP!
Have you updated your profile, yet?
We noticed that your email is still associated with multiple Aeroplan accounts. In preparation for Air Canada and Aeroplan's login system update, we ask that you ensure that each of the Aeroplan accounts you manage has its own unique email address associated with it. Once the new system comes into effect, you will be able to login to your account using your Aeroplan number or unique email address, so you will no longer be able to use one email to manage multiple accounts.

Thanks for the link, flyquiet.
I've been in hospital for a while with no internet access and did not see the thread (I really looked for one!).
Looks like in families where spouses and kids each have their own aeroplan number but probably one parent monitors all the accounts, he/she may have to create dummy email accounts for everyone - just to satisfy aeroplan! After all, how many kids want parents snooping!!!
My apologies for creating duplicate thread. Please merge if possible.
Thank you.
