I am upset. Really, very upset. And I'll tell you why :
I just realised that several dozens of people had been prevented from signing up here because of hotmail.
Indeed, when people sign in the forum sends an e-mail with a link to activate the new account before it can be used. I've recently received several mails from members who had not received their activation e-mail. Curiously, those people were using hotmail adresses.
A few minutes ago, I discovered the reason for this : all those mails had been sent back to me along with this error message :
Code: Select all
550
SC-002 Mail rejected by Windows Live Hotmail for policy reasons. The mail
server IP connecting to Windows Live Hotmail has exhibited namespace mining
behavior.(By the way, Free.fr being one of the most important French hosts and internet providers, it seems quite strange to consider it as "insecure"...)
Because of this, I am forced to deactivate this mail confirmation. From now on, this mail won't be needed and members will be able to connect immediately to the site after they've completed registration.
The drawback of this is that it will become easier for advertising bots to spam this forum... but I have no choice.
Therefore, all members who couldn't register because they had not received the e-mail are welcome to sign in again
