I'm not even sure the forum site is the right place to ask for help about the wiki site, but I could not find any place to ask for help or report bugs there.
I have not been able to get a confirmation message sent to the email address I provided when I made a wiki user. (I did notice that the wiki users are not the same as the forum users-- again, sorry if this is the wrong place to post.)
I have clicked on the link to send another confirmation and it reports successful transmission, but I don't see any mail. I was careful to check my spam box, too.
Has anybody else run into this?
Thanks.

I don't see why you should have a account on the wiki, but otherwise it seems strange...
Some website codes (for example php) sends E-mail a bit differently, so some sites/servers can't receive them (for example hotmail).

If you want to make a email system, look up PHP

quite easy actually...

Just learn the basics, understand GET and the email function!

But if you want verification and not just email... look up mySQL, then search PHP mySQL


and learn the quary's!

If you dont want to do all that, message me! I may be able to help

You need a wiki account to add/edit content on the wiki. Anyone can do it but you need an account first. Quite a few of us have wiki accounts....

Not even close to the topic.. I'm curious as to what you read that lead to this response??

To the OP, it should work I've not had or heard of anyone else having this issue.. I would try a different email acct if you have one to elimate it being something like what jag_e_nummer_ett was eluding to.

Wow lol I really don't need help with that kind of thing!
I know php and mysql, and I wasn't even asking for help!

Thanks, guys, at least it sounds like there is something wrong with the email connection between the ComputerCraft php site and my comcast.net account, and not something more generally broken.
