Grief from the mozillaZine forum
Posted: March 21st, 2017, 9:56 pm
Thank you very much for your help at http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic ... &t=3028538, DanRaisch.
This forum has given me unbelievable grief on top of all my troubles with ever-downloading Thunderbird. I wanted to get email notifications from this thread. So I substituted my current email address for the defunct address under which my "conceptualclarity" account was founded. I did my best to follow the instructions on changing email address. I got this:

I couldn't imagine why I should be told that my username was inactive when I was being very active. I found no hope in regaining use of that username, so I tried to set up a new account with a new username.

After being told my account was inactive, now I'm told that the email address was already in use!
So I had to create a new account using my secondary email, GMail. It is a mess, because I normally ignore that account.
Then I got this message.
Hello conceptualclarity,

Thanks, mozillaZine
But it appears it is too late to return to my first account, and I deleted its LastPass entry. Why was my account deactivated in the first place? MozillaZine is causing great trouble to its users.
I was unable to post this at the previous thread. It appears a non-moderator account different from the thread's originator is not allowed to post on a thread. That doesn't make much sense to me. So I am cut off from the discussion with Dan at the original thread.
