Thanks for the e-mail change. Glad to be back.

What did you do to get back?

just to be help out, BEN mentioned the following:

"yeah i need to figure out the best way to let people whose email addresses have died inaccessible, to get their new password for now if someone wants to email ben@prince.org their username and password and the new email address i can reset it.."

hopefully that helps out someone who doesn't have access to their email

Cheers, I've sent an email now.

This is what I get when I try to send ben an email:

about:blank

And then this:


mailto:ben@prince.org

blank page

So evidently it only works for some of us....

Am I correct to think that you have a program or app to send e-mail?

No, we all use telnet to port 25.

How long did it take to get a response? I sent an org note and an email and am still waiting. Feeling quite ignored by Ben for someone who's been a member for over 20 years.

Same here for my friend who's account has not yet been fixed...

Three or four days. Just hang in there. It is free service we gladly use. [Edited 2/6/22 6:16am]

Can be much longer.

Wow, wondered if that mail about the new password was legit or not...Microsoft's spam filter didn't seem to like it, glad I checked my Spam folder!

I'm more of a lurker than an actual participating member of the community, but I just have to thank you, Ben, for your tireless work of keeping this invaluable ressource for the Prince community alive and well...kudos to you, man!

I guess I'm forever EnglishGent2 now.

Shame.

Hi Ben.

Is there any update regarding the lack of response to emails requesting account recovery?

Hmm.

Something has changed.

My friend is no longer always online at the org.

Also my orgnotes are cleaned up quickly...

At least it got rid of Bart.

When comments sink to that level you make me think of who i'd rather see post.

How come my friend appears to be logged in again when he cannot log in?

First of all, who the hell is your friend, and have they or you messaged Ben?

rafael.

they emailed.

but due to the idiots of so-called spamexperts email rules the replies do not arrive at his mailbox,

Geez ... I wondered what the heck happened!

Every time I've gone to prince.org, I got some oddly generic page and couldn't sign in. Today, I happened to search something on the web that brought up an org page and I was able to change my password and log in.

But when I just typed in prince.org, I got the same weird sign-in page and couldn't sign in again.

I guess I need to bookmark the homepage - which I've never done in 16 years of org membership.

When I try to access the site from Google I get the same generic login page. However, using DuckDuckGo I was able to access the site. Strange.

I figured it out. You just have to make it https://prince.org - it was just http before.

As you can imagine, you haven't missed much. It's good to see you back though
