This would appear to be more common, but as far as filing a bug report, I logged in to do something in 2015, creating a new account at the time, so now it refuses to let me in because the username content rules have been changed and my username is now invalid. And because it knows my email address, it won't let me create a new account. So its the classic chicken v egg. I am locked out, so I rant on this list. So if your are scanning the bugs looking for my submissions, taint gonna happen. I have emailed admin and postmaster to ask that my account be expunged so I can create a new one, but like most such emails its been dumped to /dev/null, or at least ignored. I never got a bounce msg. Those bounces I do get are because my ISP's spam filtering is a hell of a lot better than bendels. I have looked at the message bendel claimed was bounced, and with an exception in the last since wheezy time scale, every one of those bounced messages were spam/phishing. So my isp bounces it, and then I get a msg threatening to unsub me from bendel. We've also had this discussion several times since 2015. Fix it so I can file a bug report, and you will get bug reports. Till then....... > > Would it be possible to post the link to your bug report?
