ita, can you see if they were blocked by spam filters?

Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
Not from here -- technically everything should show up in my webmail before it's grabbed my my spam filters at home, and I've been monitoring it pretty closely. If there's an admin id of 1 with a good e-mail address, can you try again?

Yeah. I can fix that when I get home.
Unless you wanna go into the PostgreSQL database and change the ID of the admin (like, if you can't wait to get into the test board).
edit. Duh Duh Duh. Don't change the current admin id. It'd be easer adding a new admin of ID 1. Otherwise all the admin posts would be orphans.
I can't SSH from here either. Is there a PostgreSQL version of phpMyAdmin?
Have I mentioned recently how cool it is that I have SSH on my phone?
Is there a PostgreSQL version of phpMyAdmin?
I don't know.
Is there any reason why we couldn't have two users named "admin" (just so we can have an admin user #1)? Or doesn't it matter what the user #1 is called?
Or should we avoid confusion by renaming the current admin, then add the admin user #1?
(Back when, I was thinking that the admin user would be determined by the name, not the ID #. Oh well.)
As long as you have a user numbered 1, that will work out. I'd steer clear of duplicate user names -- the code does check for it at registration. It may still at maintenance. It certainly should.

I know the code prevents you from registering with an email address that's already been used, but is there any problem with manually changing a user's email address (just for testing, of course) after the user's been added? 'Cuz I've used up all my email addresses (I have three users on the system).

Nope. Once it's in, you can change the address, and you can have multiple user ids with the same address.
