  Yeah, I think that could be the problem, I reckon he has used an incorrect email address to join the group and is now unable to activate the account via the email which you must do to complete membership.

My advice would be to forget the first membership application and complete another application using a different user name whilst making sure he is using the correct email address.

I hope this makes sense because I have in the past experienced the same problem.

I don`t understand why he needs a Member to email him.

Applying to join could not be simpler.

When you register to join a forum such as this you are required to provide an email address as well as a user name, when you hit the submit button an email reply is automatically generated which instructs you to activate your account by clicking on the link provided in the body of the email. Once the activation is completed this enables you to log in to the forum using your user name and password.

The problem anglecalm's brother is having is that he is not receiving the reply activation email and so he is unable to activate the account.

The reason he wanted someone to email him was to confirm that his email address was not corrupt, I emailed him and his email address is correct.

[angelcalm]

thank you

[angelcalm]

Maybe his EMAIL address is correct , but was he using a bogus VPN  IP NUMBER

Bloomfield what would be the reason for using `bogus`identity?
Seems a weird thing to do to join the Forum.

 When someone gets Banned from a Forum ; it makes it easier for them to RE-join the Forum, surreptitiously....they think.. 

   BUT , Every Forum Moderator has access to every Member's IP ADDRESS , on every Post
