***UPDATE*************
This message could apply to you no matter what ISP you use. This problem is happening with increasing frequency and there is really nothing I can do to help you if you do not help yourself first.

If you have registered and not received the e-mail from the board with your password, you need to check whatever you have for a "junk e-mail" folder to see if the e-mail is in there.

Once you make sure that you will receive e-mails from Boatingabc.com, send me an e-mail saying as much and I will have to board send it out again.

**********************

When you create an account here, you REALLY need to actually READ the Rules.

At the very top, I am doing my best to help you out by letting you know what you need to do to receive the e-mail the board sends out with your password.

Here is what gets kicked back to me from just about every Earthlink e-mail account...

I apologize for this automatic reply to your email.

To control spam, I now allow incoming messages only from senders I have approved beforehand.

If you would like to be added to my list of approved senders, please fill out the short request form (see link below). Once I approve you, I will receive your original message in my inbox. You do not need to resend your message. I apologize for this one-time inconvenience.

I am not going to spend my time to respond to such e-mails when they come, as it happens quite a lot. What happens next is I get an e-mail from someone wanting to know where his e-mail is that contains the password. It would be a waist of time to reply to it as the reply would only elicit yet another of the above auto responses.

I really love the fact that you want to join us and am happy to have you here. However, if you want to create an account and get your password, it is up to you to make sure that your e-mail account will accept e-mails from Boatingabc.com before registering.

Sam,

You were not the reason for the above posting, though it just may apply to you also. However, I have not received any kicked back e-mails from when I had the board send you the login info for your "Supra Sam" account.

I have sent a PM to "Supra Samh" with the info, plus the e-mail I have set that account to.

A note about this:

This problem is happening with increasing frequency (about three a week and sometimes as many in a day)and there are several who cannot login due to not receiving the e-mail that the board sends out with login info.

This applies to those who have recently changed their e-mails.

I simply do not have the time or inclination to keep on top of them all.

Once you tell your provider to allow e-mails from boatingabc.com, let me know via e-mail and I will have the board send out the info again.

I use the Earthlink anti-SPAM option and whenever I sign up for a new website I begin looking at the "Possible Spam" folder for email. Then, it is simple to add it to address book as not SPAM.

Its a shame we have to use anti-SPAM, antivirus and antispyware programs.

Welcome Supra, When I saw your "h" I thought of Dennys Restaurant with their "Moons over my hammy" omelete \:D Maybe I have the munchies.
