Why can't I verify my email to post on the forums?
I have to use an email that I don't even check anymore, it would be much easier if I could have my current email as my email but when I click send an email to verify I never get an email. Why is this? and is there a way to fix it?
Hi Jack Coburn, this just happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I had the same problem when I changed my contact email address. I kept waiting for the verification email from Hubpages, and it "never came." What da? I thought. I love posting in the forums, and I couldn't because I couldn't verify my email. So, I finally emailed the HP staff and asked why? Well, the answer was HP did! But the verification email when to SPAM. HP said to check my email SPAM... and there it was. So, go check your email SPAM bucket and dig out that verification email.

Cheers!
