If you're having trouble receiving email confirmation:

  • Microsoft's email servers tend to block messages from our servers. This includes HotMail, Outlook.com, and even some university mail systems. Getting the blocks removed and keeping them removed takes more time-resources than we currently have available; if you sign up using an email at one of these services, you will not be able to complete the process – so obviously we recommend against using them. (Microsoft seems to be keen on basically de-federating from the emailverse.)
  • If you are having trouble receiving the sign-up confirmation email on a non-Microsoft email account, please email tootcat.20241122112337@wooz.dev to let me know. Woozle (talk) 14:05, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
