Vbulletin not recognizing email address

[fowler1416]

I don't have any email addressed banned, but VB will not recognize a friend of mine's email address because he is from Iceland. The email addy is "@vos.is". Is there a way to override this so he can sign up? Thanks!

Not sure what your issue has to do with the title of the topic though...

I was able to register on a VB4 forum as: [email protected]

Make sure you are on the latest version of VB4 (4.2.1) and try disabling hooks in case a modification is causing the problem-

To disable the plugin/hook system open your config.php which can be found in your forumroot/includes directory

Just below

<?php

enter

define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

and save the file.

If you would like to enable the plugin/hook system again, either remove the line again or simply comment that line out. To do so, add two forward slashes " / " so it will look like

// define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

Next time you would like to disable the plugin/hook system again
you simply have to remove the " // ".

We are on 4.2.0

Then you should consider upgrading to 4.2.1.

I can only test off 4.2.1- did you disable hooks? Can you get a screenshot of the exact error if it persists?

4.2.0 test & confirmed as working, couldnt verify the email, but the account was created & user is in the email conf group.

Thanks for the help. I have tried the removal of hooks yet.
