    Hello anybody out there? Still no email. I've tried sending it 50 times and nothing, there is something up with you're system.

    It's 22:30 at night on a Sunday, I'm sorry the tech team response times aren't up to scratch for you.

    Let me check the mailservers, though since I was able to test it using my own account (hosted by the same free email provider as you) and it worked I reckon the problem isn't with our system.

    And the tech team don't work weekends except for serious issues, like when a webserver stops responding. Anything done at the weekends outside of this is done on our own time.

    The mailqueues on the webservers are clear, the mail left the boards.ie servers. You could have just changed account email addresses in your control panel and tried to resend activation again.
