Account creation trouble

I created an account a while back, but never received any confirmation, so I could never get the full access... Smilie I logged back in today, but I'd forgotten what I'd used for username... anyway, I entered my email address and it said that I would receive my login information, which I haven't...

So I created another account (under which I am now signed in). I haven't received anything yet, but it's only been a little bit, although you'd think it'd be something that can happen fairly quickly. Am I doing something wrong, or is something not working properly. Smilie How long between the time I register, and the time I receive an email. I would really like to have the ability to search and post.

Thanks for your help.
