Hello,

Firstly can I just say what a brilliant compoonent CB is and how easy it has been to install and configure.

I've had a good look through all the previous posts on this subject but I can't find any help on a specific problem I have been having with the activation email.

Some of my users receive the activation email but others do not. I'm not 100 percent certain, but it appears to work fine for Yahoo and Hotmail accounts, but not for others such as AOL. I've asked people to check in their spam boxes, but the email is not there either.

I'm running CB version 1.2 RC 2 and I also have JDefender installed with com_comprofiler listed as a PHP exception.

My CB registration settings are as follows:

Allow User Registration yes, independently of global site setting
Autogenerate random registration password No
Require Admin Approval No
Require Email Confirmation Yes
Ajax Username checker No
Ajax Email checker No
Require Unique E-mail Yes
Show login on registration page No
Registration Email Name Storybond Registration Service
