Problem joining the forum

Hi there.
Firstly I don't 'do' tech speak, so I hope I make sense. Someone wants to join my forum. When they register they are told their email address is invalid. This is the same email they use for everything so can't be invalid at all.

Please help.

What is the part after the @ symbol?

Hotmail.co.uk

Try this:

Have the person use a fake email address, then you activate the accounts, and then the member can change the email to the correct one when he/she logs on.

Will try, thanks so much.

You're welcome.  We will wait to lock this topic until you reply back.

It worked, thank you so much.

Great!
