How long does a registration activation e-mail take?

How long does a registration activation e-mail take? I registered 6 hours ago as user "rse" and still have no e-mail. I already doublechecked the e-mail-address, it's the right one. I also checked my spam, it's not there as well. What could be the problem here?

Hi.

It only takes seconds, normally. It's possible that your email provider has blocked our email to you for some reason.

As the purpose of the verification email is to show that you're a real person, posting here works for me! I've manually verified your account. You may want to change your email address in the user control panel if you expect to receive email notifications to answers to your questions, or to replies to threads to which you have subscribed, or if you decide to change your password, which will again require your account to be validated via email.

Best wishes,

Scott.
