Not sure if I get it. Have you deleted all cookies and cache and tried to use other browsers?

I'm not able to duplicate that problem. The board accepts both the email address and code that I enter. That email address later receives the email containing the URL to activate the account. Accessing that URL then activates the account. I'm not able to explain why the process doesn't work for you, as I'm not able to duplicate the symptoms you describe.

However: If you'll send an email to support <(at)> bluehome <(dot)> net and include your desired username, we will create an account for you manually.

Just tried again, and it worked perfectly, so obviously a temporary glitch... All's well that ends well...!

Hi,

I am a little puzzled the website says about unlimited size attachments and the webmail interface is saying at the moment the maximum size of attachments which can be attached is 2mb, is there any chance of increasing this to say 15mb so it is more reasonable for people who need to send attachments through the webmail syste.

I occasionally have to use the webmail myself especially when I have email client or antivirus bother but this recent glitch was only discovered this morning when my virus killer decided it would not boot up which is the second time in 2-3 months and this is meant to be the reliable Norton Antivirus 2005, anyhow it is good to have a webmail interface but it does annoy me with trying to find a service which would allow the sending of 10mb through the webmail system as some other services I use the maximum is 8mb.

The 2mb limit is actually a php default defined in php.ini by upload_max_filesize. IIRC I increased it to 7mb on PumaPost.

To increase beyond 7mb would also mean increasing the default post_max_size of 8mb, as well as possibly tweaking max_input_time, max_execution_time, and memory_limit.
