Thread:Project:Support desk/Registered User not allowed to edit. Not receiving Email to confirm email address.

Developed this problem since I deactivated automatic registration. I can still as the administrator create users, however when the user login, the wiki shows that he is logged in but when he tries to edit it says: "You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reason: You must confirm your e-mail address before editing pages. Please set and validate your e-mail address through your user preferences."

Tried clicking on "user preferences" but it does not allow me to "check" all the boxes in "email options".

Also when I click on "Confirm e-mail address" This message shows: "A confirmation code has already been e-mailed to you; if you recently created your account, you may wish to wait a few minutes for it to arrive before trying to request a new code."

The problem is: The user does not get the email. So the user can't confirm.

in my localsettings.php the following shows: $wgEnableEmail = true; $wgEnableUserEmail = true; $wgEmailAuthentication = true; $wgPasswordSalt = true; $wgEmailConfirmToEdit = true;
