Hi Michael,

I usually use jpoet (or if 5 characters is not enough, then jppoet).  I may not have registered on the forum.  It saying that my email could not be used, had be believing that I already had. Since Erik says it may just be blocking gmail, then my assumption is probably wrong.

I also have an outlook email, but I almost never look at it.  I can try to register with it and see if that works -- unless outlook is also blocked?

Thanks for trying to help.

John
