emailed reset password is not working

Well, I get this email -

Hello,

You have requested to reset your password on The UNIX Forums forums because you have forgotten your password. If you did not request this, please ignore it. It will expire and become useless in 24 hours time.

To reset your password, please visit the following page:
https://www.unix.com/login.php?a=pwd&u=45354&i=39357160

...

But I never get the reset password. Something is not right.

Can you remove my account so that I can re-register.
