I tried another email address (yahoo.co.nz) and haven't received a confirmation email. I also checked the spam folder for Gmail, but nothing was in there (apart from spam, of course).
Not sure if you're trolling but I'll assume not. Yahoo and AOL are about the only spam filters worse than Google. Hotmail/WinLive is also a poor service. All of them reject spam without telling you or giving you any way to check for it - the spam folder is only a small fraction of it. Yahoo even deploys countermeasures against sending servers, even for erroneous spam detections, which is just rude. I think the wiki just gives up if email is rejected (after all, what can it do?). I'm not sure what to recommend. I use various mailboxes from my co-op ISPs, so don't have much call to use free webmails at the mo. Anyone got one they know works with the wiki, please?
