This is my situation:
1 - I sign in with the "Sign in" button (and select "keep me logged in until I
sign out manually")
2 - I click on "new post" (or "reply")
3 - It asks if I read the terms of use and if I have filled the news-posting
setup (I did that long before registering as a member), and I click yes
4 - The form asks me the user name, the email, organization, and the acceptance
of the therms of use
5 - I have to fill with my user name, my _old_ email address (the one you see in
the header of this message), and check the terms of use thing. If I don't, I get
the usual error messages when I click "preview", even if I use the email address
of my profile
6 - When I click Post, it says "your message has been accpeted and will be
appearing soon". No request to authenticate it. If I do this without signing in,
it tells me to check my email and authenticate my message, like I did before
registering, but I can't get that email because I no longer have that address

Clearing the cookies doesn't help :-(

Sign out. Moreover, I don't see the new ads after I sign in.
Thank you,

| Looks like the issue is the fact that your member page lists a different email address than the one you're using. Since there are 3 separate emails in the membership form (and you only have two listed), you should be able to add your *posting* email (...) (17 years ago, 14-Dec-07, to lugnet.admin.general)
