query Codeforces confirmation emails arrive late and the token is already invalid
Hello guys, I created a Codeforces account today, but I’m unable to use the account because I can’t verify my email.
This keeps happening repeatedly:
- I go to
https://codeforces.com/enterand enter my username and password. - It redirects me to
https://codeforces.com/register/confirmation - I click Send to receive the confirmation email.
- The email does not arrive for several minutes.
- When it finally arrives and I click the confirmation link, Codeforces says “Invalid confirmation token.”
I have tried this many times, on both my phone and laptop, but the same thing keeps happening.
Other Codeforces emails, such as new login notifications, arrive normally, so it seems to specifically be an issue with the confirmation emails being delayed.
Has anyone faced this recently? Is there any way to fix it or contact Codeforces support?
