We are pleased to release the last in our services to be released today, AusGamers Mail. AusGamers Mail will provide full webmail services hosted right here at AusGamers for all members, which is currently 39,470 users.

Linked to your existing AusGamers username and password, you can log into AusGamers Mail and send and receive e-mails much in the same way as hotmail and other such services. New users will be able to use the service as soon as they have created an AusGamers account, however existing users will need to edit their usernames and passwords in order to set up their mail account, all perfectly painless.

Your email address will be in the format @ausgamersmail.com (note, not your nickname) for example my username is term, thus my ausgamers mail address will be term@ausgamersmail.com.

AusGamers Mail is built on the popular Squirrel Mail program, however using our own users database to maintain unified logins across the AusGamers network.

For more information on how to enable your AusGamers username with Webmail, check out the left hand nav on AusGamers or click here. Using AusGamers Mail you can create additional folders, apply filters for your email, it has event notification, and even a calander!

sweet, forums and mail, you just keep on giving.

mail won't log in for me :o(

f***! who's been busy little boys then?!

ausgamers. fkn. owns.

same. i think im a lil confused, i have to change my username and password even if it doesnt contain gay characters.

ohhh maan...lil matt bitch@ausgamersmail.com
can you say gay email addy? :(

for obvious reasons it isnt going to like the space in your name, hence we recommend existing users edit their username to something that will work

I have tried mine about 10 times and it won't work, my username has no spaces or anything either...

you still need to edit it even if it doesnt have spaces to trigger the script that creates the account

theres no space in my username, someone get term off the drugs.

Can I edit it, but not actually change my username ?? Because I have done that and it still won't work... Or do I need to actually change my username ??

ive changed my username and then changed it back and it still wont work.

same, i've done everything and still no login :/

tried changing usernames too and still didnt work :|

you need to wait 60 seconds for the script to go, if it still isnt working post here and we can have a look

Paste the url you used to do it please. Might be some old scripts laying around that don't have the new stuff plugged in.

Make sure you wait 60 seconds between changing your username, and trying to log into the webmail interface - we run the job that takes care of synchronisation every minute.

mine worked

ERROR

Unknown user or password incorrect.
Click here to try again.

thru www.ausgamersmail.com
editing on page http://network.ausgamers.com/?action=edit-user
as listed on the guide http://network.ausgamers.com/?action=webmail-intro&follow=http%3A%2F%2Fnetwork.ausgamers.com%3Faction%3Dedit-user

yep mine is same
i updated details and nothign

i left it for 10minutes.. still nothing.

so i guess someone give it a burl: send me your electronic love!!

i tested it myself, yay it works... gg ausgamers, gg me for being the only one to follow instructions :)

i followed the instructions u SK

Try it again if you don't mind please, I've put in some debug so I can see what's going on when you do it

done
didnt werk :|

WHAT WHAT?? you can change ya username?? :)

as a suggestion:

you still need to edit it even if it doesnt have spaces to trigger the script that creates the account

how about put a trigger on a button in user management to "activate e-mail"?

Squarky, I didn't even see an attempt by you - are you sure you're pressing the right form button? There's two forms in that page, the small one at the top with it's own submit button just or username/password, and another second form with a second form button for the other details.

The only other explanation is that you're not using the URL you said you are, which is unlikely :)

hotmail is all good :)

If you successfully changed your username, you should not be able to post on this forum until you log in again.
Make sure you press the right submit button on the profile page, there are two buttons there, one for the user/pass and one for the rest of the options.

What was your user number when u edited ur details.... mine was #90.... considering there is nearly 40k users that makes me old skool

I used to have a lower number, but I stuffed up my account password at one stage and had to get a new one because I couldn't log in :(

yeh i have the same problem- I think you just need to keep changing it until it gets something it likes.. no matter how ghey it is.. yippy! =p

I see you managed to login now acrylic

ok i got it,
1. change you username and password to what ever and wait 60seconds
2. change your username and password back and wait 60seconds
3. try log on. worked for me, dunno what i was doing wrong befor probly wasnt waiting long enough :)

/me subscribes to qglchat on ausgamersmail.com

Yer it works

Go to Edit Account

Change user name.

Come back here LOGOUT.

and LOGOUT of Ausgamers

leave 60 secs

go back into Ausgamers

Log in Update account to normal nick

come back here login

and then go to

www.ausgamermail.com

and log in with usual nick/pass and walla!!!

There's no need to do all that. Just log into the account editing page, type your password and submit the (correct) form - if you have dodgy characters in your username it'll tell you, otherwise it'll create your webmail account sometime in the next 60 seconds using the username and password you entered.

jim - i thought u ment attempt to log into webmail again :(

hang 10 i'll try it ALL over again

hmm still didnt work?

test

pfft noobs

it didnt work for me at first either, so i just changed my username from 'pk' to 'peekay', then back again, and BAM IT WORKS !!

yeah i got mine working

how big is the account?

can we send 10mb emails like Opus mail?

why would you send stuff that big over e-mail why not p2p or icq or msn, ftp?

2000000 bytes

mine works :D

i dont hav n e mail in it :(

fuknukle@wuteva the last.com thing is :D

e-mail me at Sniped_05@ausgamersmail.com
:o)

hrmmm


I tried to login... Came up "Unknown username or password"... so I changed my username, waited, changed it back, went to login again and it came up with the same error...

SUGGESTION...why dont you change e-mail addy to:.... (nickname)@ausgamers.com (easier)

just an idea :o)

Sniped_05

Sniped_05@ausgamermail.com

so whats the mailbox size limit anyway?

meh... not working for me either, but I am going to go and change my user name then...

we wondered how long it would take for someone to ask that, humm a few hours, longer than I expected. No we aint going to allow ausgamers.com for general users

if we allowed username@ausgamers.com i wouldn't feel special for having aragawn@ausgamers.com anymore. so you can't have it.

i think the real reason is so people don't use their username@ausgamers.com to mail companies/individuals portraying themselves as ausgamers staff.

and yet what of trent@ausgamers.com

phwoar

kick ass

gg ausgamers :D

Worked For Me :D
GG AUSGAMERSMAIL

some blardy a****** has my nick as their username... i hafta have gzero@ausgamersmail.com >:|

just coz my username used to be my initial and last name... grr

i'd take a fair guess at me having had my account longer than them too... seeing as my account number is 2000 somethnig...

thanks AusGamers.. very handy.. now if only there was a way to update spammers' records to reflect my new email :)

yeah its ok

domain name too long though i cbf tyyping that


agnmail.com woulda been better

or yourstate.agn.com
