Email Notifications Failing (mostly Telstra)

Hello everyone. Seems there is an issue with Telstra (possible others) blocking email from our server. If you are trying to sign up I would suggest a different email if possible. If you're trying to reset your password and it fails please use the Contact Us page:

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Hey ppl,

    Microsoft just released this, so it might be good time to get a decent email address.

    I never got a decent one with gmail or hotmail, so always had stupid account names, haha.
    his time I managed to get firstname.lastname@outlook.com

    Maybe of interest to you guys!

    Get in while they last.....

    Heard about this but didn't think it was live yet. Guess that means I've got 4 Microsoft accounts and 6 Google accounts now

        If you go to Settings > More Mail Settings > Create an Outlook Alias you can reserve a few other nice email aliases that all receive mail into the same account/mailbox which is nice. I've got about 6 addresses with various formats for names + initials since I haven't made my mind up yet, most are aliases that already belong to me in Gmail so just protecting those like you would with a domain name.

        If you dig around there are some other decent settings, so that you can send mail from Outlook.com as a Gmail address (after verification), plus all the usual forwarding and POP settings.
