setting up new user account - Fedora

Sun Mar 25 13:16:24 UTC 2012

hi guys,
i got 3 different emails from you so I will reply to all of you at once.

1. Kavein Fenzi,
thank you for your quick reply. I understand now the problem. I'm glad that it's not FedoraProject website by yahoo - these corporations....:) I appology then.
ok, I am going to use my gmail account: waldemar.antonik at gmail.com

what I need you guys to do now is to delete my login i.e. 'breadfan' so that i could login as breadfan but with the new gmail account. for now I cannot do so with gmail account, as login 'breafan' already exist but with yahoo account, as we know.

I think that Karsten might be of some help here. Karsten I copied your email at the vy bottom so that you could follow the issue. i presume you are rather busy there so I dont want to send anonymous emails out of nowhere:)

Could some of you then confirm once my login is deleted or my mail is replaced (to gmail).
I could then finalize the login process and start finally doing sth for Fedora enthusiast.

thanks a lot for all your support on this.
greetings from Dublin/wheather here is fabulous...
take care

Waldi

Hey Waldemar. 

The problem here is sadly yahoo. ;( 

They quite often block the entire fedoraproject.org domain due to some
random spam report, so we can't get any emails through to yahoo users. 
We have talked to them many times and they refuse to do anything to
help us. ;( 

See: http://mmcgrath.livejournal.com/37248.html

Is there any way you could use a gmail or hotmail or other free
account? If not, please just try again in a day or so and hopefully
whatever block they have on us will have expired. ;( 

Sorry for the bad news..

Hi:

So I don't have any special authorization to manage or look at
accounts, but I can see that your account is there from a general
query to the account system:

15:28 -!- Irssi: Starting query in freenode with zodbot
15:28 <quaid> fasinfo breadfan
15:28 <zodbot> User: breadfan, Name: Waldemar Antonik, email:
waldemar.antonik at yahoo.ie, Creation: 2012-03-22, IRC Nick: None,
Timezone: UTC, Locale: C, GPG key ID: None, Status: active
15:28 <zodbot> Approved Groups: None

Can you tell us what you are trying to do to set or recover your password?

You should be able to go to this page:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/

Click on "Forgot Password?", then put breadfan in to the  "Username:"
field and waldemar.antonik at yahoo.ie in to the 'Email:' field, then
click "Reset".

If you have done that but not received an email, you should check any
spam folders you have.

It's likely the account system is sending you an email to reset your
password, but the email is not getting to your inbox for some reason.

If you look through all your mail and spam folders but cannot find
anything, then we could ask the Infrastructure team to check the mail
logs. That can be requested by anyone with an account creating a
ticket at http://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure .
