ATTENTION FORUM ADMINISTRATOR........ ATTENTION FORUM ADMINISTRATOR

SERIOUS PROBLEM-SERIOUS PROBLEM-SERIOUS PROBLEM-SERIOUS PROBLEM

Before I get an iFoot or iPunch I recieved an E-mail from a 440 Forum Member asking for my help with an ADMINISTRATION problem.


Dear Mac Daddy,

I need your help? I have not been able to receive my daily posts by email from the forum for about 4 months now. When I noticed that I was not receiving daily emails from MacMusic, I visited the web site and logged in. As soon as my log in was accepted, the screen message told me that my email address must be changed because it no longer worked.

There's nothing wrong with my email address? I receive email all of the time from all over. I attempted to change it anyway and then the message told me that I should receive an email validation. I never did receive the revalidation email.

I've written the forum's administrator at least 15 times to try to get this fixed and have never received a reply. I can still log in to the MacMusic web site, but I cannot post to the forum. Everything keeps telling me that I have a "pending revalidation" that needs to be performed. And then I ask for the revalidation to be sent, but never receive it.

I miss the forum, I miss talking with you... Could you help me out by posting this for me? Maybe you could get someone's attention to help me out? Thanks.

Please look into this problem... if not I will continue to Post this message "EVERYDAY". Thank for your help.




Thank you so much.

I've got email, I've got PMs, there's dedicated sub-forums for this, some of them you don't even have to be a verified member to post especially for this reason.

It's not like we are unreachable. And I guess already what the problem is…

I'm sure he's using an AOL email address, bad idea. The webmaster told me on the phone yesterday, it's not that we don't answer, it's AOL which is filtering us as spam.

solution: use an email address from a email service which does _know_ its job. G-mail, hotmail, yahoo work perfectly to name a few. As long as these idiots at AOL are going to filter our mails as spam, there's no issue save this one.

Now if I was going to make this news on this as I have to since yesterday evening when I knew about the issue… wink.gif

And you'll end up with warnings and a ban in the end, ONE in the RELEVANT FORUM is ENOUGH. There's 2 forums for: general forum help, bugs and shit like this one. Use them, please. blink.gif

Mac daddy, you're a cool guy, but I'd like one day that you'd be able to post new threads or subjects in their relevant sub-forums… Really. We endure spam in these subforums especially because of such issue you repot: so that people who have connection problems can report even if their registration failed (because of the email for example) tell the guy to use another mail provider as I gave some, and it'll be ok. biggrin.gif

To all: AOL sucks, and I mean it!

FINALLY!

Thank YOU Mac Daddy, my other Brother, for your help in resolving my email (AOL) problem. I'd been struggling with this issue for too long.

And to the Forum Admins, yeah? So AOL sucks. I've got a different perspective. With all respect to this wonderful web site and informative forum, AND please keep in mind that I find it so valuable, to beat this dead horse for 4 months, I received NO reply or solution on your web site or through contacting your forum administrator by email.

If AOL starts blocking macmusic.org emails, what's wrong with the forum administrator using a more personal email address to correspond with me as to what the problem is? He or she could go to yahoo.com and pick up a free temporary email address also? And then just email me and tell me how to fix my account? I received NOTHING.

On your web site, after the log in page that first relates the problem, why not include the information there? Explain that a new email account, with "other than AOL", subscription needs to be set up BEFORE you attempt to change your email address. Because once you attempt to change your email address (using another AOL address, who knew that they're the problem?), you end up in a vicious loop of never receiving the validation email and your account and priviledges are always "PENDING VALIDATION". And then, YOU CAN NEVER CHANGE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS on that first error page of the web site log in. I couldn't post, I could not send a pm, nor email anyone from the forum. I could not do anything, but cry in frustration and miss my Forum.

I had to set up a whole new account with the yahoo email, but it works. yeah!

OK, I'm done.

Mac Daddy, thank you again for your support. Yes, you went over the edge for me. But over the edge is how we music lovers live.

Don't take any noise for granted. With a little rythym, it could be music.
