My company has recently created a Box account and I am trying to link an existing alternate company e-mail address to my Primary Box account.  When I go into my profile and try to link the alternate address I get the following red pop-up.

"the address" cannot be added to this account because it is already linked to a Box account.

The alternate e-mail address has been used previously to allow me access to collaborate with another organization (State of California) but so has the address that I used as my Primary and I did not get the error.

How do I link my alternate address?  This will also affect several other members of my company as they also have 2 versions of their e-mail address and both have been used by the State.

Hi Bryan,

Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist! 

Seems that you will need the help of Product Support in adding a new email address to your account. Let me create a new case and a member of our team will be in touch, please keep an eye out.

Thanks for posting!
