I parsed it as something like "I can't register an account that has the same name (in whatever sense matters to me) as the one I had before, because that account already exists, and I can't recover that account, because it's trying to recover via an E-mail address I no longer have access to.". The question of in what sense the account has the "same name" is undetermined, but the existence of such an additional constraint is the only way I can see to parse the given scenario so that it makes sense. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
