Cannot Edit Masked Email Entry

@ovonquadt:

Does the website allow you to change your username or email address?

On behalf of Yaron, you are very welcome @OscarGong :+1:

Hi, chiming in on a somewhat similar case:

If I wanted to change one of my existing logins to a fast mail-masked email ID, how would I do that in 1P, so that it is integrated in Fastmail? It looks like the Fastmail integration only pops up when creating a new account. But for those dudes like me, who have been on 1P for ages, it surely would be interesting to convert existing real-email account entries into Fastmail-enabled ones.

Hi @ag_yaron,

Thank for your advice, they are really helpful!

Hey @OscarGong ,
Thanks for clarifying.

While you can't edit the masked email field, you can delete it, which will allow you to input a new email (not a masked one but a regular email address). Does that help?

If you want to create a new account on a website, it is best to save a brand new login on the page and not duplicate an existing login, since 1Password saves a lot of metadata on the page it might affect things if you duplicate it and edit the credentials. It is best to save a new login directly from the webpage itself.

Hi @ag_yaron,

I was trying to change the registered email of a website to my other email address.
I think it would be also applied if I want to create a new account on a website which already have an existing account, I often duplicate the old entry and modify the copy.

Hey @OscarGong ,

Masked emails are created in Fastmail and are then being displayed in 1Password, so we can't edit them directly. Can you please elaborate on your use case and in which situations you find the need to edit a masked email? Are you trying to replace the entire email or just change a part of it?
