Partner can't register! help

Post by mcelli »

Hi All,

I just registered and am finding this site to be a wealth of great info. My businees partner (who is the one I must blame for rekindling my interest in photoM and causing my bank account to drain rapidly as a result!), is trying to register as well. He has an AOL address and when he tries to register he gets an error that says his email address is banned! Can anyone give me an idea how I can get him registered? I couldn't find an email address for Mike or Tom so I thought I'd post ere/ Thanks for the help.

Yes, we had to ban some email addresses because we were being flooded with spam mail for prescription drugs and well..porn sites; and spending most of our time deleting these messages. If we get a lot of spam from a certain provider, that provider is banned.

Is his email: *@aol.com? (replace * with his name).

Hi Sue,

Do you mean he should create an additional AOL address on his main account?

mcelli,

Creating an additional aol account will not help. "*.aol.com" bans all aol accounts. If your partner has his own web site that web site should have email accounts available to use. Please read, "No More Spam!!" at the top of the forum lists for our reasons for banning the majority of free email accounts.
