Hi,

this is some info for the webdev team: It seems that the activation link, which is embedded in the activation email, is broken. When clicking on the mail in my email-app (Evolution on Ubuntu 8.04) the link is url_encoded: &‘s are represented as &‘s . I dont know if this is linux/evolution specific but I figured you guys wanted to be informed ...

Hi Chris,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention - it is the first report I’ve had of any email activation link being broken.  I will install Evolution on Ubuntu today to check and see if that is in fact where the problem lies.  I just did some test activations through webmail, and Apple Mail, and they worked as expected.

I see you’ve created two accounts (only one is activated.)  Should I remove the other account?

Regards,
Mark

Hi Mark,

Yes please do. The first account (my work address) never received the email. I think this may have something to do with our anti-spam settings. .. Just remove the first (unactivated) account

Thanks

Chris,

Thanks for getting back to me - I’ve removed the other account.

Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark & Chris,

Is the activation link still a problem. I have not looked into it but I am about to fix a bunch of issues in the forums and wiki so let me know

Thanks
Mike
