New software, June 2020

BY WEDNESDAY I might have found a reliable way of sending email to big players like gmail, msn, outlook, hotmail and so on. At the moment their mail servers are refusing to accept that forumgarden is respectable, since we just moved host and we look new and shifty.
WHEN we have that sorted, and it only today became an issue, everyone who can enter an email address to "I have forgotten my password" will get a password reset link for their account. If you try it and don't get the reset email immediately, wait until Wednesday and try again.
ALL POSTS from the last couple of weeks are currently not yet added to the database and it's something I'll do when the hectic stuff dies down. Just at the moment it's on my to-do list. All the earler posts back to 2004 ought to be where they always have been. I don't think I've lost any user accounts but the old site did not hold your passwords so I couldn't bring them to this version. That's why you have to do a password reset for your email address.
IF the system has an old email address for you and you can't get back that far, use the contact form and we'll update your user record with a new email address. I think I'll ask you to phone me, otherwise anyone could ask for your account. I don't want to give any accounts to a faker.
WHEN you can log in again it would help me keep track of who's still lost if you post something.
SIGNATURES didn't transfer very cleanly, they've become very spaced out. Anyone keen on housekeeping could reformat their .sig - I set a 1000 character limit but I'm open to advice as always.
