WizTV registration process improved.

If you are one of the few people who had trouble with WizTV registration, please try again.
All unused logins have been deleted, which means that you will be able to choose the username you wanted originally.

Most failed registrations were due to mistyped email addresses. The remainder was made up by people who never received emails due to misconfiguration at their ISP.

To provide a more reliable service and deal with both kinds of errors, the registration process now verifies that there is a server willing to accept email for the address you provided. This should prevent failed registrations due to mistyped email addresses or misconfigured mail servers at various ISPs. This check also shows the errors returned by the mail servers, so that you can see why the email is being rejected and if appropriate, inform your ISP of the issue.
