My friend and i started our board a few days ago, some of the members have registered but have not received their activation codes.

They are using hotmail addresses and have checked in the junk folder but nothing.

Some have had to register twice in the hope they'd receive a code but have not been sent them

Can any one help please?

TIA Frances and Sassy

Sometimes Hotmail accounts never get the email. Best thing to do is sign up for another email account. Some free ones would be yahoo, gmail that i'd recommend. There will be a link at the activation page to resend for the email again.

All of our members have AOL accounts but i read somewhere it says to register with a NON aol account, why is this and would they get any further on if they DID register with and AOL account?

Thanks Frances and Sassy

AOL and proboards don't mix to well. The email most likely will not come to AOL emails also. AOL thinks proboards emails are spam emails basically and they never come. Patrick is working on AOL to allow ProBoards emails to come threw. Well i heard this long time ago. lol

Best thing to do is try new email accounts and see which one works. Gmail or yahoo they should try first. I have comcast and my email comes in a few minutes after sign up.

AOL and any other company do not mix well
