Set up user with same email as admin (founder)

Description of problem
I just setup a new forum using my email. I now want to register myself up as a new, regular user so I can use the forum like everyone else (i.e., non-admin users).But when I try to register as a new user it says my email is already in use. So how do I set this up? Do I have to use a separate email, or can I have two profiles (admin & user) using the one email?
Thanks.

Re: Set up user with same email as admin (founder)
When creating accounts, you can not use the same email addresses.
The topic was posted in the wrong section, so I have moved it to the correct section.

Like SLGray said you can't have more then one account with the same Email address as each account needs a Email address to link the account to.
