Hi Chaps,

it seems that I cannot use my Googlemail (gmail.com) address in my profile. I am hence being forced to use my work e-mail in my profile which I'd like to avoid. Is it possible to allow the use of gmail e-mail addresses?

TA :)

I added Gmail to the banned list for a while after we got a spate of Russian spam using the Gmail emails .. I can take it off again but if we start getting plagued by them again, it will go back on ...

I think that Mich is a Kraut, via Bolivia (or some such Nazi hang-out), hence his odd accent, but certainly not Russian.....

(hopefully the use of the term 'Kraut' is not deemed offensive, and as for suggesting that Bolivia is a Nazi hangout, I apologise to anyone offended, it is simply that there are some serious war crimes over the years, not least http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41o2wBjjPjE God forbid they ever breed...)

Is the blacklist only checked during registration? Can you register with a legit address and then change it in the settings to a gmail one?

Are googlemail and gmail both banned? I have a googlemail.com address (as gmail isn't allowed in the UK due to an existing copyright holder) but I can receive email sent to me at gmail.com with the same account. Don't know if that works the other way.

Otherwise don't be such a tight get and get a domain name that forwards on to your free account. That's what I do. Only £3 a year.
