I changed my email address on my 'main' account, Devon, and have not received a verification email. I've hit the resend button on the login screen a couple times over the course of the day but haven't gotten anything, so I suspect that I may have typo'd and the email may be going to an email that doesn't exist :dumb:
I have done a search on the forums and found an email address ([email protected]) but I'm not sure if it would be appropriate for me to email there, since it really isn't a password issue. I'm kinda at a loss as to what to do. I do still have access to the email I registered both accounts with, so proving its mine isn't a problem. Most likely the easiest solution would be to just undo the email change so I could do it right this time, but then I don't know if that is easy or not.
Now, because I did actually read the sticky (though I am repeating myself sometimes and I doubt much of this will help, I still would like to not have my children eaten if they existed, thank you)..
a) Where are you, as in, at which screen, in which program, etc.:
I browse and check email with Mozilla Firefox, and the page upon which I changed my email address was the "
b) What was your last action before the issue happened.
I changed the email address associated with my preferred forums account
c) Which version of Windows are you running? ME? 2000? XP? XP SP2?
Windows XP SP2
d) What is the exact(!) error message?
When I attempt to log in, there is a lovely red message that says "Your email address needs to be validated before you can login. Need another activation email?" and despite clicking the link and having another activation email sent, I have not received it.
e) Is it a consistent bug, are you able to get around it, and are you able to reproduce it at will?
I don't think it is a good idea for me to do this with both my accounts, and if it is a typo then I doubt I can reproduce the exact way I mussed it up. So, no I cannot seem to be able to get around it, and I don't know if I can reproduce the (likely user based)"error".
f) Which steps have you already taken to try and fix it? This step is in fact very important. If you do not include this, do not expect to receive help
I have repeatedly, waiting a fair bit of time ranging from 30 minutes to hours, clicked the link requesting another validation email. I have searched the forums and found nothing similar (probably because everyone else can spell their own email addresses) and also read the various help pages. I uh actually registered an email address that is the most likely typo of my actual email, and requested the verify just incase.. and that wasn't it.
g) Which router/firewall are you using, and have done anything to set it up for SoD?
None and I don't think this would have any kind of effect even if I did, but I am answering it for the sake of the children.
Please advise on how to resolve this at your soonest convenience
