    Unregistered email question!

    So I've been finding unregistered emails lately. I've managed to grab some shell accounts this way.

    However, on some of them, when I use the "forgot username" form on neopets, it goes to the page which says:
    "The username(s) for this email address are on the way!
    (please allow 15 minutes for delivery)"

    15 minutes have pass and I still haven't received TNT's emails. I've checked the spam folder on the unregistered emails, but still nothing shows up. Is there any reason why this could be happening? Is it because these emails are unsubscribed from Neopets?

    Any sort of help would be greatly appreciated!

    It's due to a glitch on Neopets and unfortunately the only way to resolve it is by sending in a ticket.

    I may be totally wrong but sometimes when I log into an account and check the e-mail preferences, the e-mail address has been replaced with a hash key, I think this is something to do with it.

    Anyway, regardless of what caused the glitch, it does happen a lot and is super annoying!

    And also, back in the day, they could have blocked emails from Neopets via the website itself.

    That way, you can't even get recovery emails and such. I know that from my old gmail being blocked

    Aww, this is a real bummer. But thank you both for the help and explanations, anyways!
