Aloha!
I just updated the email address on buyer 27822 and the red x is showing immediately next to it....the email address is valid as I've been corresponding with him via it....I tried to reverify by click the green check but it still shows the red x....he wants to make sure he receives our emails so how do I fix this?

Thanks for reporting this. There was an issue where the red x was not being cleared whenever you would fix the email - this has now been fixed.

7450 and 35433 and 35906 have been reactivated.

We did not see a "red x" on CRM record 35400.

You can clear the red x by changing the email address (like adding a number to the end of it) and then saving it and then changing the email back by removing the number that you placed at the end.

I have done this to record 4287 and the x is now cleared.

If you come back later and the x is there again, it means that the email address was reported invalid AGAIN by the server that manages that person email account.

trying to clear the red x for buyer 11930. When I try to put in the email and click the green check mark to confirm I'm getting the error message "please enter a valid email address." The email address is valid. You'll see that we sent him an invoice confirmation email to this email and he opened it 7 hours ago....please advise how to get his email address back in his profile. His email address is now blank as we cannot save it, his email address is [email protected]

Sometimes when you copy an email address from other places such as a document file, there can be a 'blank space' included with the email address.

I am able to successfully save and edited email addresses on my end.

Please try to type in the email address again manually and you can let us know if the issue is still persisted.
