Default Registration fails when using an hotmail address

I had this problem for the last 3 days. I registered using my hotmail address and was told I would receive an validation email shortly, but after 3 days nothing. Tried switching my email address to my brother's but still nothing.

Then today I tried my gmail account I just created and it worked right away. Could be a big problem since lots of people use hotmail.

Just tested this myself (by switching my account's e-mail address, which sends out a re-verification e-mail) and I never recieved the e-mail. When I switched it back to my normal address, a Yahoo! one, I got the message right away.

Hopefully it'll be fixed soon, but there's plenty of other places that offer free e-mail addresses for the moment. :\

Thanks for testing and confirming it . I only really use 1 email address so thought there was something wrong with my email lol.

Tested (And although we all knew the outcome =P) it didn't work. I did it because it's better to say that 3 people tested it rather than 2, right?

I certainly hope they do fix it soon though.

hey guys, I disabled the need for email confirmation for the time being until I get this sorted out.

Also anyone who was waiting for email confirmation I bumped up to registered status.

Cheers
