As noted in the New User thread, I tried to subscribe a new user, no email was received to approve.

However, I tried to make a Comment from that same computer and, despite the user not being approved - I received a 17-line email.

It appears to be directed to the 'sender' (in this case my wife) - and it informed her that her comment would need to be approved, etc.

Oddly, this email was delivered to my personal email (same domain as hers) - rather than to admin@imperfectchristians.net

Is there some place in the Serendipity setup that my personal email might reside and for some reason (for Comments, but not for New User subscribe) it chooses to use that one - and for the wrong purpose?

Yes, there are the personal settings, accessible at the top, that has an email for each author. That would be a clear bug though, and explain why the plugin does not work for you!

So, I tested this in my dev blog. For me, there was a database error after the user registration - which would explain why no email was sent out for you. I fixed that in https://github.com/s9y/additional_plugins/pull/195 - tomorrow the new versions should be available as plugin updates. Could you install those then and try again? :)

Just ran the Update and tried a new User subscription.

No Admin approval email was received at admin@imperfectchristians.net

Also, if the new User subscription email was supposed to receive an email notifying of pending Admin review for approval - that didn't arrive, either.

Did you get the page after the registration explaining that an email will arrive?

As an email or as a pop-up page on the blog page?

I saw neither.

On the blog page. When you register the user, there is supposed to appear a confirmation page.

So I had a try at your page. https://www.imperfectchristians.net/ind ... e]=adduser is the dedicated registration page. When I enter my email there, I get the error message "You did not pass the anti-spam tests. Please check if you entered the CAPTCHA correctly." But there is no captcha - which has to be a bug.

In the plugin configuration of the sidebar plugin for adduser, there is a config option for "Use Captchas". Is that one enabled?

No, that's the event plugin. In the plugin menu of the backend, there are two tabs - sidebar and event plugins. In the sidebar list there should also be a adduser plugin, and that one has the config option.

Well, that's something at least. Please set it to no and try again :)
