Three different times I have tried to register as an OOO member, using
the form on the web site. The result from last time was typical: I
received the first of what should have been two e-mails, and never
received the second.

Here is a portion of the e-mail I received the last time, in January of
this year:

Subject: Welcome to openoffice.org

Welcome to openoffice.org, michaelmarking!
You are now a registered member of OpenOffice.org.

This mail message is the first of two; the second message will contain your
new password.  It may take some time to reach you; please be patient.
...

Well, it has been seven months, and it was several months the time
before. Having been patient, I now ask for assistance.

What happened to the second mail?

My best guess is that it was rejected by the spam filter, but without
any idea of the source address I haven't been successful finding the
entry in the logs. I can whitelist an address, but only if I know what
that address is, in advance.

(The same spam filter does not appear to have a problem with the OOO
discussion, native-language, or announcement mailing lists.)

There was no indication in the first mail regarding what action to take
if the second mail were not to arrive. I was unable to find a clue in
the web site documentation.

Alternatively, is there another way to register that does not involve
the second e-mail?
