Formiculture Email Problem

In case anyone is wondering, the Formiculture.com server is currently unable to send emails to email addresses with Microsoft, Apple, or Google owned domains. This has been this way for a couple months now, and will be until I finish building the new server. Because of this, many validation emails never go out, and therefor accounts cannot be validated automatically. I go through and validate the accounts myself usually, but sometimes it might be days before I get to it.

 

Until the new server is finished, to get validated automatically, you might want to try using a different email address just for validation, then once the new server is finished, you can change it to whatever you want. Another way to be validated faster is to just go in the chat room and request it.

 

Sorry about the inconvenience. It's taking me much longer than expected to finish this project. Once the new server is finished, the forum should be a little faster.

I received a password reset email on my Gmail address on October 18th, though they were automatically filed into spam.

No, but I have a feeling you are actually wondering if the website will look the same. This has nothing to do with the website, only the hardware it runs on.

It's possible some emails may go through, and yes, they probably will end up in your spam folder. Most of these large email providers automatically consider any email junk unless it's sent from a well-known email domain. You should be able to whitelist formiculture.com to keep that from happening.

Emails is more easier rather than checking notifications everyday

The new server isn't finished yet, but I managed to fix the temporary email problem. I actually had email validations disabled for the last couple months, but they are back on now since there shouldn't be any problems receiving emails anymore.
