  I’ve just set up my blog. It says it sent me a confirmation email, but it’s not in my inbox or trash. I’ve asked it to resend an email to me several times. Can you please advise? Many thanks.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account. You can create one gravatar for every username account that applies to all blogs registered under the same username account and email address.
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-address/
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-notifications/

  There is a single email address that can be used on only one wordpress.COM username account and not on any others, regardless of how many blogs are registered under that username account.

  The wordpress.COM blog’s owner can change the relevant email address on their accounts page at https://wordpress.com/me/account at any time.

  For Issues Changing your Email Address see https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-address/#issues-changing-your-email-address

  If you cannot locate the email verification check your email client spam filter and if you use gmail or google apps please consult these guides:

  Hi Darnell Dibbles, it still didn’t arrive. It’s a yahoo email address. Maybe it doesn’t like yahoo. Should I maybe change it to my google mail email address instead? Many thanks!

  Hi there,

  There is a glitch in our system that prevented you from receiving the activation e-mail from us. We apologize for the convenience. However, I have fixed the issue on our end, so you should be ready to go. Let me know if you have any questions.

  Thanks!
