The ongoing e-mail issue

OK, my e-mail inbox is still getting flooded with bounced e-mails, so I've made some changes to a total of 28 member accounts, and I've sent the following Private Message to each -

I really didn't want to have to take the hard-line approach to this issue, but I'm more than a little tired of getting all the bounced e-mails each and every day.

I've done some additional housecleaning this morning. I found a total of 59 members that had yet to verify their e-mail addresses, to complete their forum registration. Of that number, 40 individuals had registered 60+ days ago and had not been active since. Those 40 accounts have been deleted from the database.

If you see a notice at the top of each forum page, advising you of how to confirm your e-mail address, please take those simple steps. It won't take but just a moment and you will then have full forum privileges. If you do not confirm your e-mail within 60 days of registration, your account will be deleted.
