    I had a message on my account that said "Attempts to send emails to (my email address) have failed. Please update your email.
    I could not post any threads, view any content etc.
    I had to change my email address to an incorrect one, then change it back to my correct email address so the website would send a verification email to myself which enabled my account again.

    So VFR world is able to send emails to myself, so why was my account flagged as unable to receive emails?

    Edit. Oh and I checked that I didn't have VFRworld in my blocked list, verified when I received the verify your account email.
    Guess I'm not welcome here.

    I had the same problem, neither myself or the moderator could fix it.
    I had to use a new email address.

    I was able to resolve it as Audible did. Used an old email that doesn’t get used anymore, then switched it back. I also changed my password while I was at it.

    No matter how many times we tried, the old email would not work.
    It worked for everyone else, just not VFRW.
    I just swapped to my work email.

    went through exact same thing this week. Original email, nothing changed, now won't work. Switched to secondary, works fine. Switch back to original, stops working. Guess I'll leave it on secondary for now.
