The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Thanks for that feedback. I'm aware and if having a problem at the same moment then more likely the STMP email server was experiencing a temporary problem.

Generally it is okay and many people are signing up each day and you only hear (in reporting) about the cases where people are not seeing the email. All the people signing up of course don't report back, but that is what I am seeing also.

The system now reports an error to the user if the email is not genuinely sent. Earlier it didn't report that. If no problems reported to the user then the email really was sent, so it is just a question of whether (1) it is in the spam folder or (2) an intermediate email server considers it spam and has filtered it even before it reached you.

If anyone is having signup problems then:
1. Check the spam folder.
2. Repeat but with a *different* email.

I think the community here wants the email confirmation if the logic followed through, as they want to know that *other* users are genuine and not just creating lots of different login accounts to pretend to be multiple people when they are just one person.
