OK, let me tell you what I've tried so far. I did ftp in and change the config.inc.php email to nick@mydomain.net. I sent for my password again after the change, but it still didn't work. So, I created a new nick at the practice board, then in phpMyAdmin, I changed that membership from "User" to "Administrator" and logged in, but it didn't see the new member I created as an administrator. It's like the changes I make in phpMyAdmin don't take. They do show up on the _USERS screen but it's like they're phantoms, because the changes don't change anything. That's where things stand now.
You said to test the email address I create in the config file. I sent an email to that address from the email addy I use as my personal email account on the board. It went through, no problem. Is that what was supposed to happen, or was it supposed to do something additional? Anyway, that's my update. Thanks for not giving up.
