READ THIS FIRST: After signing up for a new account, please go check your given email address for your first-time log-in password. Check your spam, filtered, bulk and junk mail too. It's in there, somewhere.

I'm hearing from some folks

I'm hearing from some folks that the log-in/password fandango isn't exactly intuitive.

When you create an account/register, run back and check the email address you signed up with to get your one time password. Come back, log in with that password, and change it to something you know and love.

and if that doesn't work out for you, let us know.

Yeah, I had a hard time

Yeah, I had a hard time finding where to do that, the link in the email doesn't take you to it. You go to "MY ACCOUNT" then click the edit tab, it will let you change it there.

Login Problems

Several people over in DNC report having trouble logging in here.

At least one of those is someone who didn't receive the confirmation e-mail after registering.

What is the next step if one doesn't receive the confirmation e-mail, or if more than 24 hours have gone by since receiving it? (like, say, finding it later in one's SPAM trap.)

no password?

The password return is pretty prompt.

There have been some (but clearly not "all", so don't jump on me all at once, please) folks using non-web-based emails that apparently are not getting the password email. Our own MaryE was among 'em even! If you suspect this is the case, we suggest creating a gmail account (or other web-baesd mail account) just to use here.

If you don't get the password within maybe 2 hours, and have checked your Spam, Bulk, Junk, Filtered, and/or Non-Inbox emails (and you don't automatically delete those things.... be careful there), drop a note to me and MaryE at deadnetmods@gmail.com and we'll try to track you down. Would be best, of course, if you used the email address you're trying to register from to send the email to us...

to which I would add

comcast addresses are especially prone to this problem.

comcast

Comcast email is a problem for more than just the dead.net verification. It seems they readily put senders on some sort of blacklist that prevents any of the sender's email to get through to any comcast account. Our work emails are blocked by Comcast. We've pleaded our case to them, but we haven't been able to get ourselves unblocked.

IJWTS

And somewhat beside the point at that, but ... this is how my favorite DNC folder got started -- it was meant to be a place to deal with and give feedback on the login experience. From there it grew into a mighty fine place...

Ducking out now - that was your Today In Deadnet History Lesson for June 12 (or thereabouts). :)
