I lost more than 12000 WUs as I have an old email which doesn't exist any more (job changed). So I'm not able to activate my old profile. WHAT A PITY!!

It is so depressing.....


Is there any chance to save my 10.973 years Total CPU Time?

I have the same name in both projects SETI classic and BOINC. I have the password of classic user ID, only what I don’t have is the old email address.

It is so depressing.....

Sorry Otmar,

So many have this problem, and there is NO work around (unless you can open that email address again just to get your password ... maybe you have a nice net admin at your old work).

Its a tough old world. I make sure I tell EVERYONE in our team to keep a backup of your seticlassic password and BOINC keys... just in case.

I would try to keep your email accounts synced between the two projects. I believe that this may be used as a key when generating the final snapshot.

Thanks a lot for your help. You gave me an excellent idea. I will try to reactivate the old email just to get the password. That won’t be easy, but … Otmarius Optimisticus.
