Hi gang, here is the routine for what to do to activate your pool (and what to do if you don't get your activation email)
To activate your pool just click on the link in the email you should have received after you set the pool up (Should arrive almost immediately) If you didn’t receive it try this
1) Double check the spelling of the email address you input for the pool admin to be sure. 2) Check your spam filter to see if it is in there. Be sure to set up your spam filter to allow our emails to come through. They may have been blocked (Your ISP might have blocked it too). 3) If all looks good go to the "Edit Pool ID" page. At the top is a link to resend the email. Click it and check your email again. 4) if it is still not there, then email us and include your POOL NAME & ADMIN PASSWORD and we can activate it from this end.
ALSO WE NOTICED THAT HOTMAIL ACCOUNTS ARE HAVING PROBLEMS RECEIVING THE ACTIVATION EMAIL. WE THINK THAT THE HOTMAIL FILTER IS NOT LETTING OUR MAIL GET THROUGH. WE WILL TRY TO RESOLVE THIS BUT WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU USE AN EMAIL ADDRESS OTHER THAN A HOTMAIL ACCOUNT IF POSSIBLE. NOTE THAT IT ONLY AFFECTS THE EMAIL. YOUR POOLS WILL WORK JUST FINE!

OK IF YOU HAVE A HOTMAIL ACCOUNT be sure to add PickupHockey.com as a safe sender in your account preferences. This will allow our emails through.
FOR EVERYONE - THE EMAILS ARE BEING SENT. If you didn't get them it could be one of the following reasons:
1) a mistype in your email address when you set it up (please double check) 2) your computer/firewall spam filter didn't let it through (please allow them through) 3) your Internet/mail service provider blocked it (please ask them not to or set your mail preferences to let them through (hotmail)) 4) it bounced back to us because your email account was full at the time
Detailed Instructions: - Log into your hotmail account - Select the ‘options’ button (on the right side of your screen when viewing your inbox) The Options are: - Manage Your Account - Junk Email - Customize Your Mail - Customize Your Contacts
Under ‘Junk Email’ there will be two options:
- Filters and Reporting - Safe and Blocked Senders
Select ‘Safe and Blocked Senders’
Under this option, there will be three more choices:
