When you join the forum, you should be sent an automatic message with a link in it almost immediately, when you click on the link, your registration becomes active and you can then post messages.
Some of you, particularly those with yahoo and hotmail adresses don't seem to get the email, and it "bounces" and comes back to me. It doesn't seem to happen to all yahoo accounts, just some of them, confusingly. I then get it as an email message saying the activation email is undeliverable.
If this happens, I will activate the registration from the admin end of things as soon as I get the message.
I'm sorry for any difficulties this may cause.
I deliberately chose not to allow guest posting to protect users of the forum, so I hope those who have a delayed activation will bear with me.
