Registration Email Not Received

[Lunarius_Haberdash]

I have a couple friends trying to register accounts here, but they aren't receiving an email. I thought perhaps it had to do with where they're located or something equally benign, and attempted to register another account.

Almost an hour in and still no registration email received. Spam folders and such already checked. Advise?

Just tested with a sane mail provider: registration is working.

Suggestions:
-> Enter the correct mailaddress
-> Should you use hotmail: don't! get a googlemail, web.de, whatever instead

We've had some issues with hotmail in particular. Not sure why.

What do you expect from a Microsoft free mail service?
The only things that won't suck from them will be vacuum cleaners...

Can't say that about this post of yours, sadly.

Technical reason for my statement: A mail service that vanishes mails without a bounce isn't email by definition (see the RFCs regarding SMTP).

If you continue become good role model I get to your level eventually. Have this faith.

Microsoft has a very draconian filtering system. They silently discard emails from unverified domains and also in some cases if you don't have Sender Policy Framework enabled (which you don't seem to have for havenandhearth.com).

Contact their support - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/get ... cale=en-us
they will tell you the exact reason.

Or just don't allow people to register with hotmail/msn/live/outlook at all. Would be better all around

Silently discarding email = not RFC compliant
equals to
Hotmail ≠ email

just don't allow people to register with hotmail/msn/live/outlook at all. Would be better all around

This.
