Has anyone voted absentee electronically?

I've registered to vote absentee electronically. I didn't get a choice in doing this. All US citizens living abroad have to do it this way now. My voter registar in the last state I lived in entered my email address wrong. Their fault, not mine. Now they tell me it's too late to change the email address and to just use the wrong one they entered. Well that's not my email address. Does the electronic ballot go to the wrong email address? Or do I just vote from the site provided and the email addy isn't involved at all other than to have my email on file? I'm pretty PO'd about this.

I've got a friend who works for my congressman looking into the problem. He's never heard of this problem before. I am still hoping someone out here in DU land has already voted electronically and can describe the process......because if when I vote electronically, the ballot is delivered to the email address on file then I'm screwed for voting since it's not my email account and obviously someone else could wind up with my vote.
