Problems with the Forum
« on: February 12, 2003, 03:05:36 PM »
This is my second time trying to get on the forums


Three Days ago I signed up with an e-mail ending in .org, and It never sent my password.

I chalked it up to technical difficulties...

The notice comes up that Everything is fixed, it should work now!!!!

I do that, I type in the right e-mail, nothing... 8 more times over two days... nothing

I do it with a yahoo.com e-mail and it works instantly... strange

So I guess my question is does PGC not accept .org e-mails or somthing? Because I still wasnt getting an e-mail after it was supposedly fixed.

More than likely, it was your e-mail server that was bouncing the messages back from us.  There are a few servers out there that will refuse mails from the Forum because it thinks our e-mail relay is open.  Fact is, their way of testing to see if our mail relay is open or not isn't accurate.  Not much we can do about that, unfortunately.

Our e-mail is fixed now, but I still have a few people who have registered that can't get passwords ... all because their mail server is rejecting the message.

Is there a reason for the bump that I'm missing?

Rick is back.  Kinda.
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!
