    Yet Another Account Foul Up

    I guess I used the wrong email when signing up for SSO.
    And I can't honestly remember which one email I used for my UF account.

    My old account handle was baggins, and my profile page is at:
    http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=108012

    As for identity verification. I still have access to all but one of my old mail accounts (ends in sdu.dk). Just can't remember which one I used.

    I take it that when I get my old account back I also get the baggins handle back.
    If not is there anyway to fix the current name so my name is spelled correct?
    There was an special danish character "æ" in there between Kj and rsgaard. It's an UTF character, but can be replaced by "ae".
    The way it's spelled now is just silly

    Hope you can help.

    Regards.

    Re: Yet Another Account Foul Up

    PM me with your best guess at e-mail which has bilbo and kollegienet in it.

    You can also PM me your birthday, which is filled in but hidden, so that would serve to verify the account.

    As far as the name for this account, once we've got you into the correct one - this one will be disabled - I can change the username at that point to some random one and the æ will be a moot point.

    I've tried sending an email to the address registered to the old account, but got a mail delivery failure notice, so I assume that account is no longer active.

    We can restore you to the old account easily enough, if you can give us some hidden information which is not publicly visible - as a security measure. PM me with the email address if you can remember it (hint - "kollegienet" is part of it - or the date of birth in the baggins account, which is hidden from public view. Once I've received your email, I'll arrange something suitable. There won't be a need to substitute characters in this account once you have the old account back.

    Swapped e-mails, changed username.

    You should be able to login as baggins - you'll not be able to post in this thread however.
