Password Retrieval
Posted: Wed Jan 15, 2003 12:35 am
I never even thought of this. Since the SMTP feature in this forum does not work, if anyone looses their password the feature won't work. You can try it, but you'll be waiting forever before you get an email. 
So in the case of a lost password, please email me with the same email address that you used to sign up here and I'll give you a new one and you can log in and change it to something else of your choice. But it MUST be with the email that you used to register, or if you changed it in your profile, the changed one will do... you may email me using a different address but the password has to be sent to the one in your profile anyway. That way no body can just manupulate this system and hijack people's accounts. So it's just a high tech security feature.
Once we're all setup on a linux server, 64-bit cpu and all the nice goodies (64-bit? maybe not lol) I'll work more on getting it fixed. But this windows setup is fragile so I rather not play with it too much. Adding new smillies is about the most advanced administration I do on this windows thing.
So just thought I'd make this clear about password retrieval if ever it is needed.
