We will soon be requiring everyone to Confirm their E-mail Addresses (by Andres)
I was a bit confused at first. Then couldn't find it in my emails, it was in my junk folder!! So I'm good to go, again :D
Thanks!
Yeah, I can see how it can be confusing for people who have been using the site for a while to suddenly get that message and not be able to access the site. I'm going to add a message to older users clarifying what we're doing and why so there is less confusion.
I'm concerned, however, that our e-mails are ending up in user's Junk folder. Did you have it resent today, or was it the original one when you first signed up?

Andres I just read in this thread you wanted us to report if email from the site is going to our spam box. Well sometimes it does for me, even after I say it's not spam. Also and I know this is strange but sometimes I'll receive email from here that the same message is in both of my inbox & spam box too. It shows the exact date & time on the message.
Very strange...thanks for letting me know. It's important that all of our e-mails end up in people's inboxes and not their Spam folder otherwise they might miss out on important messages. I'm going to have to look into this more.
Folks, please keep reporting if our e-mails are ending up in your Spam folders, if the e-mail confirmation link wasn't working for you, or any other e-mail issues. Thanks!

I'd have to check my emails again. Is it the same link you get when you first join up. I'll check in a bit. To be honest I'm not completely understanding technology and I only go online on my mobile, because I don't own a pc. I also never delete my emails, so it may take some time. So because I'm confusing myself, are the links meant to be the same? But yeah this one today was in my junk mail.
@Andres: My e-mails from here do not go to the spam box, but I did resend only because I deleted the original.
Yup, the e-mail would be the same, the only thing that would change is the date. If the date shows today's date, then it was a re-send. Otherwise, it must have been the original one sent to you when you signed up.
OK, thanks for letting me know.

@Andres: I had mine resent, and it went to my junk folder.
OK, I'm noticing a pattern here. Do your e-mail alerts also go to your junk folder, or just the confirmation e-mail?
Just the conformation email. My normal notifications usually go to my inbox.
