Forgotten password

F fragos.george Public Seen by 61

I forgot my password to Diaspora*, but Riseup.net (I signed up to Diaspora* using Riresup's mail servers) seems it does not support the kind of messages Diaspora* sends to the user in order to reset his/her password: the phrase "Reset my password" inside the message is plain text and not an HTML link... How will it be to reset my password in Diaspora*...? Is there something I can request from Riseup people...? Or is it possible for you to reset my whole account, preserving all my existing content in it, so I will re-sign up with a more compatible email address...?

Really if you can recover the pass of diaspora with riseup , if you do it through a web client: the example is with IMP Webmail as is normaly i,m use : there is a link to see the mail received with the correct codificacón , looking at attached capture and understand.

The second option ( highly recommended) : use a mail client like thunderbird and completely forget about these problems , find a more pleasant and functional way to use riseup :)

This is a support issue for riseup, probably shouldn't have been posted on Loomio.

@Rich You're probably right, but I think it's best not to let users abandoned.

I have not found a forum that can support users in English, (this not work http://www.diasporaforum.org) and i,m will not be promoting a google group if my life is,not in danger.

yes I know a Spanish forum http://forodiaspora.com.ar/.

It would not be good companions riseup tell: fragos.george : it is a question for Diaspora.

I think it is bad thing to capture users, not give good support, and use they as ping-pong ball
