Verification email link not working

Eichhörnchen · 04-17-16, 07:25 AM

That's it in a nutshell: I've been clicking like fury on one of those reciprocal links that verify your email ID to someone and it just won't work.

I've tried typing it out and sending it, also sending it via another browser but always the same message comes back: "link appears to be invalid, please ensure you send the WHOLE of the link just as it appears in your email".

Well I have... how hard can it be? I've done this a dozen times before with no problem. Of course my mother says it must be me... I said "well it's no different to just going and switching a light on... it either works or it doesn't". Why does she always think it must be me?... Steve?

Any suggestions?

Problem solved: I had the other party switch to my other (Microsoft) email address and the link worked. Why it wouldn't work with my 'gmail' I do not know.
