Questions I can't find the answer to

Well I finally have designed my first ecommerce site with Zencart-very easy to use.

Threee things I can't figure out though-and can't find the answer anywhere.

1. Can I make the email address not required on the member app form (customer does want them to have to have one)

2. For some reason my tax is not working---I setup the zone for Illinois--if they ship there is should charge tax--it shows the tax field but it never makes it an amount-even if I ship to illinois---is there some typical bug that I can't find anywhere

help would be appreciated

thanks

1. Can I make the email address not required on the member app form (customer does want them to have to have one)

Not at this time. First, the email is the "username" for access to their account details. Second - who shops online and doesn't have an email address? How are you going to send them an order confirmation if they do buy?
