  When commenting on my blog, you’ll see a standard comment screen:
  —
  Name: ___ (required)
  Mail: ___ (will not be published) (required)
  Website: ___
  —
  How could I change “Mail” to “Email”? Just the text, I mean. The prompt would work the same. I have seen this done on another WordPress blog, so it must be possible, I just don’t know how to do it.

  Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  It isn’t possible here at wordpress.COM since we do not have access to the underlying theme files.

  You’re welcome.

  You might send that into staff though and see if they will change it. It certainly would make more sense if it said “email” rather than “mail.”
