[nodel-discuss] cant make new account on website

[Rob Canning]

hi lisa

technical detail... 
when i try and make an account on the new website it says the username email 
already exists
when i try and get a password reminder it says there is no such username email 
or that the username email is not yet activated or is blocked

maybe its just me... just thought i would let you know... sorry if its somthing 
my end
