Email Addresses of New and Active MembersIt is most important that valid email addresses are given by new members when signing up, and for current members to maintain a valid email address too. There is no need to worry about other members seeing your email address - they can't, even when emailing you via the forum.
During the signing-up process, new members are sent an email giving details on how to complete the signing-up process. If the email address they give is false, then they cannot become active members of the forum.
It may be the case that the emails from this forum are being bounced as being spam. If that is so, then you should add this forum's address to your white list. Meanwhile, I will send an email from outside this forum to the email address concerned as well. If that gets bounced too, then the new member will not have their membership activated. Any accounts not activated after 7 days will be deleted.
Sorry to have to do this but the rules of the hosts of my forum do not allow false email addresses. They can shut this forum down without warning if this rule is breached. So it is very necessary that all members have valid email addresses.
Any problems, contact me at: whispers at whispersfromwalmington.com
