Message 4244 - Posted: 24 Oct 2004, 16:31:21 UTC

Hi, every time I see, that there is new chance to create an account at this project, I am trying several times to create one. But that e-mail �LHC@home new account confirmation� doesn�t arrive. I talked with the administrator of my e-mail box and he told me, that cern.ch has a problem with SMTP server, because it doesn�t know, where mx server of my e-mail is. I don�t understand this, but he does.

Please, help me. I am used to use my address ostruvek@poupe.net in other boinc projects and there were no problems. Only LHC@home. :-(
I create this account only to able to post my message here.

Thanks for your answer. I created one account to be able to post my questions here. But I want to use my address ostruvek@poupe.net here and it�s not working. I don�t want to switch my addresses, because of a bad configuration of some LHC@home SMTP mail server... :-(
