Title: Forum registration failed
Post by: thogru on May 15, 2021, 01:24:41 PM
Hi,

When trying to register to this forum using my gmx email address i never got the activation email. I checked the spam folder of my email account, i disabled the spam filter for my gmx account. But the activation email was not delivered to my gmx account.

Finally I decided to use an email account ...@discard.email. For this account I got the activation email without any problem.

Regards
Thomas

Same here!

If I tracked it correctly, GMX rejects emails send without correct SPF information.
The activation mail is sent from 'reply@opnsense.org', but in ID and reply-to 'www-data@www.opnsense.org' is used, thus  spf validation fails.

@ForumAdmins:
Could you fix this by either:

Got the an nearly the same problem:
Tried to register with the an @hotmail.de-address an never received an activation-email.
When using another username (because you can't register with the same username from the same computer again) and @arcor.de-email i could activate after some seconds successfully.

I'm not receiving an activation emails well (gmail mailbox), which is probably why I'm not receiving notifications of posts to the announcement forum.

Does anyone know if the activation emails are still being sent with invalid SPF information?

Thanks,

Vic.
