That makes me... cry. Not mail-related: a user of our web app forgot his password today and was having a ridiculously hard time using our password reset form (basic enter-your-e-mail-and-submit, but he kept missing the submit part). He declared it broken and demanded a completely new account. I noted we can't do that without giving him a new username (old accounts stick around, the usual primary key/audit trail restriction) and suggested it would be harder to remember jimpatient2 than jimpatient. He got all kinds of crazy on me. "Fine," I said, "I'll break policy. You have a brand-new account with the same name." And did nothing at all. Then, he said, the reset form started working.
