A site I'm a moderator of had the same problem. I wasn't able to access it originally. But I have a paid localdial.com account that I use, not a free hotmail or yahoo account. When I eventually got accepted as a member, I got the email straight through; it didn't fall into any junk or spam folders. I'd like to know why I didn't get the email at the beginning when I have a very different email account to most and why there are other members of the site, not with localdial accounts but many not with popular free accounts, who are having the same problem, and why several people have easy, immediate access who have MSN and hotmail accounts.
