I have manually activated your account.  Please use the Lost Password action to reset your password if that is needed.

Please be aware that if your account is not actively used for something then new idle accounts will be expired as an anti-abuse measure.  Please read this document.

https://savannah.nongnu.org/maintenance/IdleAccounts/

As for the email the problem is at Yahoo.  Did you check the Spam folder for it?  It's at Yahoo somewhere.  Here is the log showing Yahoo accepting the email.

Sep 18 16:13:55 frontend2 postfix/smtp[26083]: 63DAE120726: to=<jorro_bg@yahoo.com>, relay=mta5.am0.yahoodns.net[67.195.228.109]:25, delay=4.9, delays=0.04/0.02/2.5/2.3, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 ok dirdel)

Yahoo accepted it.  The problem must be at Yahoo.

As Alfred said the mailing lists are completely separate.  There is no need to have a Savannah account for the mailing lists.  There is no need to be subscribed to post to (most of) the mailing lists.  Simply send your message or bug report and it will be approved through.

Please let us know if there is anything more we can do to help.

FWIW, You do not need a Savannah account to send a email to grub-devel@ -- they are to separate things.

As for the delay in your account submission, one of the Savannah admins will need to look at that.

Hello,
Yesterday, I registered a new account (username Joro), email address jorro_bg@yahoo.com.
Either I misspelled my email address, or your mail server does not send the account confirmation messages correctly.
Can you please check the issue?
The spelling of my email address above is correct.
Alternative email addresses:
-email is unavailable-
-email is unavailable-
-email is unavailable-

Thank you in advance.
Georgi (a.k.a. Joro)
P.S. This is a bit urgent because I want to report a bug in Grub 2.06 (my MX-Linux 21.2 stopped booting and shows grub-rescue instead after some updates, I think from grub 2.04 to grub 2.06)........... Namely, the /boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod contains a symbol grub_native_disk_sectors that the mode interpreter does not recognize (supposedly, grub_get_disk_size was not updated to grub_native_disk_sectors everywhere, see https://www.mail-archive.com/grub-devel@gnu.org/msg31333.html).
