The forum software hates me

Well my email address anyway.
When I try and use it it says: "The e-mail address you entered is not allowed to be used." :(
Anyone know why or what the rules are? I've used my work address for now, but I should really be using my personal account.

Does it have an apostrophe in it?

[quote="marco"]its hard to say really
I havent blocked your domain specifically,
Maybe the software just doesnt like the look of it?!

any ideas? I looked at the phpBB source and there isn't any default set for this, the only way this happens is when it matches an entry in the ban_email column of the phpbb_banlist table. Perhaps someone was banned and the rule was a bit "wide ranging"?
