Hey guys.

I'm having problems with my Hotmail account I just created. I'm trying to get into my Inbox, but it says the account needs to be verified. I click the button to send the verification email, then click Inbox again, and the same thing happens. I need some help A.S.A.P as there is a very important email that will probably be sent soon. I'll take some pictures of what's happening and post them in a sec.

Cheers,

So we can expect to see images sometime next week then? ;)

I assume that with the clicking of the resend verification link that you actually are following through with that - checking the email address the verification is being sent, etc?

HaHa very funny. This is the problem. The email address that the verification link is going to...IS the email address that I just started.

Here's some pictures.


First off I start from my profile:

Then I click on Inbox:

Then it tells me to verafify the account:

So then I click 'Send Email':

Then it tells me that it's been sent:

Then I go to my Inbox again to check for messages:

And then it comes back up with this!:

Yeah, but once I click the link to verify it, I have to go into the Inbox. Then it asks me to verify again and so the cycle goes around again. :nervous:

Listen carefully - the verification email is being sent from Hotmail to liesandspies. You have to go to liesandspies, check your email there, not Hotmail, and do exactly what it says, which is likely just clicking on a link.

Which is exactly what the screenshot you posted says...
 
OOOOOOOOOOoooohhhh! 🤬 hell, why didn't I see that. I should have made the email out liesandspies@hotmail.com instead of....yeah. Gee. Alright, that means I've got to re-make another one, and scrap this one.

Thanks for the help, TB! 👍

Amazing what happens when you follow the directions, huh? ;)
