On previous places I worked at I did many months of SETI . However I had not seen the light then (joined TeamMacnn) but did the work with no team association. Both my previous email accounts are gone, is there anyway to get all those units moved to my current membership?

The FAQ describe how to log into the old email account and then get a transfer to the new one. The snag is that those accounts are gone. With the work units done on a 6100/60 at both places the pace was not high but over a year or two running 24/7 it should be something to add to the glory of the team

You need the account passcode for each SETI account, which is a nonsense sequence of letters and numbers. At some point, this was hopefully sent to each of the emails in question. If you still have your inbox archived from those periods, you may be able to search up the passcodes.

If you do not have the passcodes (no inbox archive, or passcode never sent), then the only real hope is to temporarily reactivate the emails in question. If the emails were with a major service like Earthlink, it is common for them to reserve previous users and not reissue the address. Ask for it back for a month - this will cost a few bux.

If the emails were in a company mail domain, the only real way is to ask a friend still working there to reclaim your old address, then have Berkeley send the passcode.
