User Account Missing

I saw in the news that there was a hard drive failure back on the 18th, but I did receive an E-mail at one of my disposable addresses on the 24th. Now, however, my main account is gone, even trying the password reset tells me it's an invalid account. Is their any chance it'll come back or do I need to recreate it? I had dozens of trusted senders and also dozens of addresses locked to specific senders so I really hope the data's not gone. My account name was staggers.

same thing has happened to me

It's completely gone, I just recreated mine because I realized I had some things coming that I couldn't afford to miss (for one a $15 Amazon.com gift certificate that hopefully hasn't been sent yet :shock: ). I hope the old info can be restored, but for now I have to have the forwarding working. :cry:

I've restored all the missing accounts (definitely you username and you staggers), except for a few people who had created new ones -- try to log in.

This really sucks -- sorry about it. I still haven't heard back from our service provider about getting new hardware, but hoperfully we'll have that worked out soon.

For now, the database is running on a different hard drive, so we don't expect more corruption.
