Can't login after updating domain

Coprolith · January 28, 2004, 10:29:13 AM

I still had my bookmark set to beastlords.demonshouse.net. After updating it to beastlords.org as adviced in the latest announcement i can no longer login. I tried the 'forgot your password?' link but im not getting a confirmation email, the same thing that happened when i originally created my account.
Help would be appreciated :)

Thanks in advance

I dont think it likes your unusual e-mail address :-P

you have another you can use ?

Unusual email adress? what's so unusual about [email protected] ?

Coprolith · January 28, 2004, 04:59:42 PM

Well i created a new "usual" alias for my email adres and tried to register. Same problem, not getting the confirmation email

DiosT · January 28, 2004, 05:31:25 PM

ill check the smtp server...

and im not sure how well php was desinged for [email protected], wasnt sure how well they coded for it to pick up...

smtp server seems to be working, and got my confirmation e-mail from the server...

but it was filtered out as junk, are you sure your ISP/e-mail client isnt filtering it ?

I don't see what would cause the problem, I've sent kash & myself an e-mail through the board, and then registered a dummy account as well, and it's all working... I think your ISP or client might be filtering it out thinking it's spam..

but will still look into it

Lemme check my mail box. I get lots of bounces from a *.nl domain recently.

Coprolith · January 28, 2004, 07:07:53 PM

Could be the ISP i suppose, and if it is i don't know what to do about it. On my side im filtering out the usual "make $$ fast" and "get your penis enlarged" messages, but i doubt you've got that in your subject line for a confirmation email :D

I found the problem.

the problem is your mail server located at smtp.chello.nl is on no less then 4 different RBL lists.

See http://openrbl.org and type in "smtp.chello.nl" in the IP or Hostname Field. You will see what I mean.

We do subscribe to blacklists.

You need to get a hotmail account or something to get the email message.

thanks kash for looking into it :-)

I wouldnt have found that

Kashmiir Battlekat · January 28, 2004, 08:24:39 PM

There is more. Looks like smtp.chello.nl is also refusing connections as noted below in the headers. I have removed "Coprolith" email address for his privacy otherwise the header is full and intact. Coprolith feel free to take this header to your ISP for review.

So if i understand correctly im the victim of overzealous email blocking on both sides? yea gods.
A'righty then, i'll see about getting a free email account somewhere else.

Any chance of transferring my post count once i register again? :P
