"Crowd Intelligence" works - and I have to correct myself. The godmother was Regula Vontobel from Pfäffikon, born 06.09.1749. On 22.02.1773 she had married the miller Hans Gujer from Kempten. More detail see https://www.geneal-forum.com/phpbb/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=33922#p127032.

"I still can't get on the geneal-forum."

What exactly does this mean?

1) Reading is free on the forum - no login required. If you click on https://www.geneal-forum.com/phpbb/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=33922#p127032 you should be able to read the post. If that doesn't work, we don't have a password problem - then something else is wrong.

2) You had requested a new (temporary) password to be sent - this was done, but the mail bounced as undeliverable. Consequently the admin sent this temporary password to me and I have forwarded it via private communication in the community here … but you seem to have never tried this. Consequently I have tried to log in "in your name" … worked perfectly. Again in your name I have "subscribed" to the topic "Jenta von Wetzikon" and later posted a test response: so you should have received a mail telling you that a response has been posted to your subscribed topic. Please, check your mailbox, and let me know if such a mail has arrived. If not, there is a problem on the side of your mail service.

Kent - we don't seem to discuss along the same lines. So let's go step by step:

Reading the forum is free - no login required. Therefore, before we continue any password related issues, just click on https://www.geneal-forum.com/phpbb/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=33922#p127032: you should be able to read the post on Vontobel von Pfäffikon. Can you read this - yes or no? If no: what sort of error message do you get?

Very good 😊. I only asked as you had written "I still can't get on the geneal forum." - just wanted to make sure there is not a general connection problem.

Now for your temporary password: nobody is still working on it - it had already been sent to you. You cannot find it in your mail folders because your mail provider (gmail) has bounced it, that is returned it as "undeliverable" … as it doesn't seem to be an incorrect address, only gmail will now why ☹.

I had therefore asked the admin to send it to me to forward it by other means: I have done so a few days ago, via this community's internal messaging. Click on the "envelope" icon (right next to your avatar): check if you can find it - and, if yes, try to log in … I had done that "in your name" and it worked perfectly.

Let me know how you are getting on.

Hello Kent,

I would like to clarify this login / communication problem asap. Reason: right now for me the most plausible explanation is a problem with gmail. Should that be the case, I would like to be sure, and issue a corresponding warning. To make sure, however, I need your help … therefore my questions:

1) Have you found your new (temporary) password as described?

2) If yes - have to tried to log in?

3) If yes - did you succeed?

4) If no - what was the error message?

I am looking forward to hearing from you - best regards - Wolf

Well - as mentioned before: you cannot find a message in any of your folders as gmail bounced the mail as "undeliverable" - so it's not your fault, most likely it is gmail just blocking the mail (for whatever reason) with the fake excuse that the address is incorrect/invalid - which it is not (we've checked that).

Again, as mentioned above, I had sent you the temporary password via the internal FS messaging system - and have described how to find it. A screenshot will hopefully make it clearer: http://www.seelentags.de/delete/password-message.jpg.

Open your messages (click on the envelope icon), scroll to my message of May 10 (might not be the first one) > open it and scroll down to my message of May 9: there you'll find the new password (blackened in the screenshot).

As mentioned before, I had tried it "in your name" … has worked perfectly.

Try this - and let me know what happened.
