JUOT.net E-mail Confirmation (Account Activation) Issues

[BirdOPrey5]

When you complete your JUOT.net registration you will receive an email in your inbox. You MUST follow the link in that email before you can post on these forums. Until you do that, you will be told that you do not have permission to post.

Some email services may send the email to junk mail or bulk mail, please check those folders if you do not recieve the activation email in your inbox. These e-mails are usually sent immediately and should only take a couple minutes to receive. You may also have to white list webteam@juot.net to recieve our email.

After you white list us, you can use this link to request the verification email to be resent to you.

If you use a fake email address, you won't get our email and thus not be able to complete registration and use the forums.

If you use the contact us form to request help, you must include your user name and email in the body of the email form. If you do not, we will have no clue who contacted us and not be able to help you.

AOL Users

For AOL version 9 and above: you can ensure that valued e-mail is delivered to your Inbox by adding the sending address to your "People I Know" list.

* Open the latest e-mail from JUOT.net.
* Click the Add Address button (over on the right) to add that sender to your
"People I Know" list.

Alternatively, you can simply send an e-mail to webteam@juot.net.

Even if the e-mail you send doesn't get through (for whatever reason), the act of sending it does the job of putting the address into your "People I Know" list--and that's what counts.

If you're using an earlier version of AOL, you'll need to set your Mail Controls instead. Here's how:

* Go to Keyword Mail Controls.
* Select the screen name the JUOT.net e-mail is coming to.
* Click Customize Mail Controls For This Screen Name.

For AOL version 8.0: Select Allow email from all AOL members, email addresses and domains.

* Click Next until the Save button shows up at the bottom.
* Click Save.

For AOL version 7.0: In the section for "exclusion and inclusion parameters", include the domain of the "From" address (juot.net).

Thank you for white-listing us .

Gmail

If you're using Google's gmail for e-mail, you can ensure that JUOT.net e-mails are delivered to your Inbox by either adding the sending address to your Contacts list or by marking any incorrectly filed e-mail as "Not Spam". Here's how:

* Open the latest issue of the e-mail you want to whitelist.
* Click the More Options link. It's on the title line of the e-mail,
over on the right, next to the date. (If you see "Hide Options" instead, then you already have the extra options visible and can just skip this step.)
* When the extra options are visible (just below the subject line), click the
Add sender to contacts list link.

Alternatively, you can just send an e-mail to webteam@juot.net and that will add the address to your Contacts list automatically.

Even if the e-mail you send doesn't get through (for whatever reason), the act of sending it does the job of putting the address into your Contacts list-and that's what counts.

If one of your JUOT.net e-mails has been filtered into the Spam folder, you can prevent that ever happening again:

* Click on the Spam link to open your Spam folder.
* Click on the wrongly filtered e-mail to open it.
* Click the Not Spam button at the top of the e-mail (right next to "Delete Forever").

Thank you for white-listing us.
