She associated an gmail email account and an aol account to the two forum accounts in question. Both are seeing the same issue.

First I assisted her by trying to send a 'forgot my password' link. The first email is sent by mailer@eqemulator.net and looks like this:



Both gmail and Aol accounts get this email. Well in clicking the link, of course it directs her to a page on eqemu forums and says a new password will be sent via email. Only the second email never comes to actually reset her password for either email address / account. I waited 30 minutes and had her try again to be sure, this time having the mailer@eqemulator.net email address be whitelisted on both accounts as people have suggested just in-case. Whitelisting did not help. The second email never arrives.

In searching the forums, the mods and others have suggested people use this link to help with account recovery: http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/reg...o=requestemail

Neither account is receiving the follow up email to reset the password or the secondary method of account recovery.

Any other suggestions on how she can recover her eqemu forum accounts?

I had to create a new account just to be able to say I also have this issue. The 2nd email never comes, it's not in Spam or anywhere in my email account. The account is essentially frozen now.
