Updating email address

Both my husband and I use the same paypal account since it's linked to our bank account. However he and I use it for different reaons. He uses it for online shopping/ebay and I use it for my online business. I added another email address to my account which corresponds to my business. Will both email addresses on our account be able to receive/send funds or do you have to use the primary email address on the account to do so?

BarrelRacer13-  That is a very good question you ask!  Lemme help you out.  Any outgoing payments are going to be coming from the primary email address on the account, there's no way to change that.  As far as incoming payments, as long as both email address are active and confirmed, then either one could receive payments.  Any payment notifications would more than likely still go to the primary email address, but you can always set up a forwarding rule from the primary email to forward to your second email.
