I have a perl question, but would like to create an account first. I created a user name "monad" with email "????@lums.edu.pk".I was told an email with my password would be forthcoming. I have waited more than an hour and not recieved one yet. I thought of asking on chatterbox, but I can't login. What am I doing wrong?

I then tried to use the password reminder, and it replied that "Your password and username should be on the way." But still no email. I gave a different email address, and still no luck.

Sorry if this is not the right place for asking this, but I don't know what else a non-user can do. I am waiting online.

BazB obsured the user portion of email address
