can't get the registration code

Hey, I can't seem to get the e-mail with the account registration code. I think gmail is doing that stupid thing where it just blocks an email without even sending it to spam. Does anyone know a workaround for this?

What's the address for the e-mail? I might be able to set up a filter for it to force the e-mail through.

Oh, I should specify, I didn't mean the registration code for the forum. I meant I can't get the email when I try to verify the account on the game itself.

Right, that's been an issue lately.

There's been quite a few new players which don't get the confirmation email if they use gmail.

The other day Abma wrote about a possible cause

Code: Select all

[21:38:01] [AG]abma: wrt registration mails: is gmail used?
[21:38:47] [AG]abma: afaik they force spf records
[21:41:05] [AG]abma: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/81126
[21:41:13] [AG]abma: i guess thats missing
[21:41:19] [AG]abma: but i don't have access to the dns records
They've been able to register using a hotmail account instead (it still went to spam in that case).

I think at this point it might be better to just disable the verification system until the issue is fixed.
