In order to complete your registration for a Yahoo! account, you need to enter an alternate (non-Yahoo!) email address. We use the alternate email address to send you information regarding your account, updates regarding Yahoo!, and a new password if you ever need one sent to you. We have found this to be an effective tool, especially if someone is having problems with their Yahoo! Mail account.
However, if you don't currently have an email address, you can leave the Create my free Yahoo! email address checkbox checked and then leave this field blank.
Please Note: If you don't enter an alternate email address for your account, you will only be able to receive a new password by providing the answer to the Security Question you entered during registration. If you forget the answer to your Security Question and do not have an alternate email address listed on your account, you will not be able to receive a new password.
