(Posting over here so as not to clutter up CreativeForge's newbie thread.)
I have an Outlook email address (obviously not the one I use to login here) and it's hard to tell the difference from the "proper" Office 365 email which my employer provides for my day job. So I thought they were more respectable these days?
Ages ago I signed up with an ISP-provided email address, but it isn't very good and I often think outlook etc. would be a good alternative, and I'm sure many other people have these as their only address.
Obviously I don't see the bad stuff which happens behind the scenes of the forum (and I can see you might not want to post details here either), but I was just surprised that these addresses are still a problem?
I must admit I was surprised that email addresses such as Outlook.com are still an issue?Dear Newbie,
In case you wonder why you did not receive a notification email that your registration is activated, let me direct your attention to the registration page again. Especially this:
In other words, make sure you use a proper email provider, and not one that has been blacklisted so much over the years that they are now overlooked by the forum's software. When that is fixed, you will automatically receive your activation email.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
Andre
