New Member unable to register?

Did he enter a vaild email addy? also it can some times take a fue minus for the email to arive

Are you sure he didn't accidently delete the e-mail or not see it?

Hmm.. :confused:

I really have no idea on this one. Telll him to wait a bit.

Thanks Jonathan. I hope other people aren't having the same problem he is.

Someone I know is having that problem too.

Registered two weeks ago, never got the email. Tried again with three other emails/nicks, never got them.

But now, it says that the nicks are registered, so he can't reregister.

I just got an email from someone else who is having trouble registering and has waited 2 days for his password.

The person I originally posted about has also not recieved their password.

It looks like the server isn't sending email.

I think he was just pointing out that it was obvious it was you.

Another interesting fact is that I can't get an email with my username/password.

I can't get a member name/password on my Mac.com address either. In one of the suggestions topics <a href="http://forums.appleinsider.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=11&t=000074" target="_blank">here</a> someone made the offhand remark that mac.com servers didn't accept mail from macnn addresses. Could that be it?

Looks like only .com (maybe.net and .org) addresses work. I tried two .de addresses and did not receive the mail. When I used my .com one it worked.

Any update at all? <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

I've got nothin. Might be best to email gzl about this:

neal@macnn.com

he can screw around with the unixy guts and stuff, if needbe...

I smacked sendmail around a few times. Should be working much better now, if not perfectly (there are always a few hiccups here and there).

Let me know.

cheers,
-gzl.

I was unable to get my own information at my mac.com email address. Just thought I'd let you know.

They should be able to get their information by clicking on the get my password button. Unfortunately, it seems that this isn't ever sending out the mail either. :(

Still no email for me.

I just tried it and it worked for me. I'll let you know if there are any more problems.

It's my fault, guys. Sorry. I changed my profile and promptly lost my new password. Murphy strikes again.
