For the OP - are you or your ISP running any type of spam block or 
filter software? I have run into registration problems several places 
because of ours. In our case the spam filter grabs emails from addresses 
it hasn't seen before and shoots a message back to the sender's server 
asking for verification information. As soon as that is received the 
email shows up in my inbox, if it is not received then the email gets 
trashed. Many spammers systems are not set up for the verification so it 
never happens and I don't see their mail, but sometimes non-spammers 
systems, including some handling list registrations, do not respond 
either. Sometimes I can let the people know and they change their system 
to handle the verification, other times I have to do the work around 
mentioned before of using a throw away email address.
