If you are a member of an {% data variables.enterprise.prodname_emu_enterprise %} and your account was created from August 2024, your email address is unverified by default. Having an unverified email address does not affect most actions you can take on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}.

If you are a member of an {% data variables.enterprise.prodname_emu_enterprise %}, your email address is considered unverified if it is used as a verified email by another account on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}.

See "[AUTOTITLE](/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-personal-account-on-github/managing-email-preferences/changing-your-primary-email-address)."
Until you verify your email address, your account will use a placeholder email address with your enterprise's shortcode appended for certain operations. For example, the REST API endpoint for users will return `[email protected]`. In rare cases, you may find that third-party apps or your company's email provider do not handle the placeholder email correctly.

### Email is already verified by another user

If you see the error message `Error adding EMAIL: Email is already verified by another user`, you must either unverify the email for the other account before proceeding, or choose a different email address to verify.

To unverify an email address, delete it in your email settings, then optionally re-add it without verifying to keep any commits linked to your account.

During sign up, you'll be asked to verify your email address. Without a verified email address, you won't be able to complete some basic {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} tasks, such as creating a repository.

Some enterprises create {% data variables.enterprise.prodname_managed_users %} for their users. You can't sign up for a personal account with an email address that's already verified for a {% data variables.enterprise.prodname_managed_user %}.
