Post subject:  For Phil - Confused About Email
Hey Phil,

I am just courios.....

I was checking my email, and I got an email from Karaoke Scene,

QUOTE:

Several people have not been receiving requested info. I want to be certain that we have the correct email address. This was retrieved from your karaoke Scene Forum Account. If you are receiving this, it was because your email was rejected by the system. Please login and verify your account information. Otherwise your account maybe automatically deleted.


What I am asking is that if I received the email, shouldn't it mean that my email was ACCEPTED, not REJECTED by the system?

I just want to make sure that my account does not get deleted, as that would be sad :(

Thanks :)

Good point !

Please remember that I am a numbers and coding freak... The english language confuses me!

Okay what happened is that the email system, set up with the forums (a coding issue,) rejected several hundred emails.

I therefore retreived those rejected emails and stopped the automated deletion process until after I could send out an email to verify the validity of the emails.

If you received an email and have since logged in; the system has then updated your account.

Else, If you received the email but do not login - the system will again attempt to delete your account. I want to avoid a bunch of emails from people stating that they can't login. (It has happened before.)

Else, I receive an email from AOL (for example) stating that the user is an invalid email address. I will then allow that email address to be deleted - or I may do it myself.

Now, unfortunately, that has probably just confused everyone more! :roll:

I can write an algorithmic expression to explain it better! :wink:
