resurrected Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 has anyone done that yet? I've never received an email from this place and I've been a member for a few years. So, I can't verify an email address if I've never received any emails. Pretty sure when I created my account(s), there was an option to opt out of getting emails. Can't remember for sure, but if there was, I'm sure I would have clicked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doom Metal Alchemist Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 You can go to your account settings and see which email account you have linked your UEMB account to. If it's one you recognize as being a valid email of yours, you should be ok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raptorpat Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 We are having two problems: people registering with disposable email addresses and email addresses that deactivate due to inactivity (aka yahoo). If you don't fall into either category you should be fine. We're not looking to send out emails or anything that people don't want, but every time we get a bounceback we get a ding from the email host, and when we get enough dings everything goes to shit.

resurrected Posted January 30, 2021 Author Share Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) I mean, I have quite a few email accounts, but I don't log into them, even on a monthly basis. You have to have an email account for everything these days, and that is the purpose for which I have email accounts. I don't check them because I shouldn't be getting anything of worth in them. If it's not a verification for something I bought or something like that, I never check any of my email accounts. I don't correspond via email. It's not 1995 and email isn't the best thing since tits. Edited January 30, 2021 by resurrected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 1/28/2021 at 1:19 PM, K_N said: I'm receiving too many complaints from our mail handler about messages bounced back from invalid email address or email addresses that have marked our emails as spam. I will be implementing an automated process that will remove these emails and by result, disable the accounts they are registered to. If you do not want to lose access to your account, please ensure you are properly receiving emails from us immediately. This process has not yet started. I need to write a small program to handle it. When I get around to it, I will update this topic with a 72 hour warning before putting it into operation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K_N Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 To prevent spam, email servers will blacklist other email servers that send bad emails. So if we try to send a bunch of emails for replies to posts you get to [email protected] and that email doesn't exist... we get flagged as spam and cant send emails anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people wont get any, and that's fine. But when you click the "notify me of replies" checkbox when replying to something, you will get emails for those. Most of the issues we've had with bad emails have been those - and private message deliveries. (To be clear, I can't see the contents of those - but when an invalid email bounces back I do see the subject line in the notification) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
