New account, can't post or verify email

[idea2000]

Hi, My cousin just registered a new account, but he can't post a new thread, as the button is missing and he also can't verify his email, as no email was sent to his account. What steps does he need to take in order to post a new thread or verify his account?

It would help to know the user name, although I can guess which account you mean.

PF has a continuing problem in that they will not accept some e-mail hosts. I changed my e-mail provider about a year ago but the new address is rejected when I try to update my profile. I posted a question asking why this occurs and received a non-answer of (paraphrased) "We don't accept some email providers." Which of course does not answer the question, or even supply any new information at all. Maybe there is a good reason for this, but so far it is a closely held secret. This was followed by suggestions to use a different e-mail provider or set up my own e-mail host.

Maybe between us (with the help of whoever else wants to comment) an answer can be extracted from the powers-that-be.

That has nothing to do with it.

We don't discuss individual cases here and further speculation is not helpful. Greg has to have a look anyway. I closed the thread.
