2 of my friends are trying to create an account, but are not recieving there emails, both hotmail and gmail accounts have been used.

Gmail should work, look into spam folder.
Hotmail sucks, try a provider that actually does RFC conformant email.

Please PM Loftar with the mail addresses they used to register so he can look at the logs.

I've sent the PM an hour or two ago, though it's remained in my outbox - not my sent messages.

The PM being in the outbox means that the recipient hasn't read it so far, give him a bit of time (update last night leading to sleeping longer).

Removed the mail address you posted.

Maybe your friend could generate a googlemail account and use that to register?
