Hey there! I've registered to this forum yesterday (2012-01-07) and got a system mail that said:

Before you can login and start using the forum, your request will be reviewed and approved.  When this happens, you will receive another email from this address.

Today I checked if my registration was already approved - by logging in to the forum - and it was! But I did not get such a notification mail - neither in my normal mailbox nor the automatically maintained spam folder. Somebody should check if this was just a one-time slip or whether it's actually mis-configured :)

Are you getting any OTHER messages from the forum? If not, then please check your profiles for typos in your email address :) I'm definitely getting forum notifications, and they're all sent through the same mechanism.

Yes. For instance, I get notifications for this thread. It has always been so for me :)

The point is that if there is no approval mechanism in place, and you are unlocked immediately, then this should not be wrongfully pointed out to newly registered members ^^

It was the same for me when I registered here, I also didn't get the notification of approval - instead I could normally login a day later. Maybe there is a checkbox not checked in the backend spoc-software?

"Send welcome email to new members" is definitely turned on. New accounts are approved manually by one of our administrators, and mails shoud definitely go out.

Maybe we were approved too quickly!
Or maybe we share a rare mutation that at first makes us instantly approved, and later turns us into zombies :)
