Checking them out, all the emails I got came from this site. Neither SETI site have liberated theirs yet.

Got several from BOINC and one each for main and beta.

At least we know it is being worked on and hopefully fixed. Thanks to Eric, DA and the rest at the lab.

It was a DNS issue. The fix hasn't quite propagated to everyone yet, but we're getting there.

I got my delayed SETI mail overnight. I'm surprised to hear it attributed to DNS, but whatever they tweaked, it's worked.

I wonder what to do when I do get emails from this project about PMs, but never got the corresponding PM? Hmmmm....

Message 78867 - Posted: 9 Jun 2017, 16:43:00 UTC - in response to Message 78865.  

Found it. Apparently this user had some form of spam in their account because the top 3 new users are 73837, 73836 and 73804, while this 'user' had ID 73821. Seeing from the gaps in the top 3, we miss a lot of accounts, meaning that the spam filter went by and deleted all of those for reasons only the spam filter knows. Solved.

No need for me to Pm the 'person' back, because he won't be able to access the account. Its authenticator has been removed, thereby nullifying the account.
