Hi Tony this has happened to some of mine when they have not received, or not dealt properly with, the 'challenge' email. The transcriber should go to http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/bmd-files.pl and enter their submitter-id, then follow the 'Forgotten your password' route. The transcriber will get a new 'challenge' email. Reasons for not getting the 'challenge' email include misspelling the email address, and possibly spam-trapping by ISPs. If the email address was mis-spelled, the 'challenge' email will not reach them. You can check this by comparing the email address used in contacting you with that on Syndicate Maintenance, letter by letter if necessary. If the email address was mis-spelled the transcriber either needs to adopt the misspelled address, even if only to get the automatic challenge email, or, I suspect, re-register with a different submitter-id. I am open to correction on this. Otherwise contact Allan or Virginia from links on http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/ctroles.html Jeff -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

If it's down to an error in the e-mail address, we can fix it. Just let Allan know, and all will be well. -- Dave Mayall
