If the PDF states that admin email changes are blocked with the lock is on, then the PDF is incorrect. A subuser with the appropriate permissions configured can also change the email address, with the appropriate permissions, when the registry lock is enabled. I think the essential element here is that it's a *registry* lock, and while the ICANN RAA mandates that registrars maintain certain types of records, in a thin registry like CNO, admin email addresses are the responsibility of the individual registrars, not the registry. Having a registry lock apply to email addresses would be unenforcable except by contract, and we all know ICANN's success rate in that area. -- Paul Chvostek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Operations / Development / Abuse / Whatever vox: +1 416 598-0000 it.canada http://www.it.ca/
