Hey everyone, can you guys help me on this one. I just registered with msn and when I went to verify my email address . msn never sends the email with the link in it!! anyone know what I should do??

Try adding ppmsvcmg@passport.net to your safelist, I receive the verification email from this address.

Try to resend the verification email (in the File menu, you'll find such an option).

I have already

Do you know what leito.gt meant about adding ppmsvcmg@passport.net to my safelist?

In the main msn window, signin. Then hit the file tab in that window. Then hit the text resend the varification email.

Ok when I signed in to msn messenger I go to file then verify my email address. Then I click on send mail in the next window that pops up. Then when I go to my email inbox nothing is there. now I don't have an msn account, I am using another service. is this what's affecting it? can I use an email other than hotmail or msn? say for instance yahoo or aol?

Yes you can perfectly. The easiest way if to go to www.passport.net and signup with you non-hotmail adress there. But i guess you already did that?

However, not recieving the confirmation email is a known problem for me. Some of my friends had this too. Sometimes it can take up to 48 hours, and sometimes the email doesn't send at all. They best you can do is to wait about 24 hours, if you didn't recieve it by then you could resend it. If you still don't recieve the confirmation mail then you could try to contact Microsoft about it.

Also make sure the confirmation email isn't blocked by any spamfilter on your emailservice.

ok cool, I sent msn support an email, hopefully they will respond. Thanks alot for the help guys.

I am having this problem as well and in the drop down menu for file
I do not have the option of resending the verification. So do I just send an email requesting verification to ppmsvcmg@passport.net ?

did you check you junk email folder incase it ended up in there?

Also did you go to account.live.com and look around there?

Another suggestion, perhaps try editing your details, and see if it works, never know.
