Vivaldi email account

[michaelvoinea]

Hi,

I'm trying to open a Vivaldi email account and it says i need to gain some "reputation" to be able to sing-up for an account. Can you please tell me how this reputation thing works and how i could open a Vivaldi email account?

Thanks.

@michaelvoinea In the past users only got mail account when they was authenticated by mobile phone number. But some users never had a phone, and so Vivaldi released the new reputation system, to get access for all.
The reputation system has some internal (we do not tell) rules to decide if user can be trusted as not being a spammer.

Reputation can be increased by

• participating at Vivaldi Social
• getting upvotes of own posts in forum
• Using Vivaldi Sync

After a few days or weeks you get a email and tells that your mail account is be released.

@DoctorG honestly, I would much rather give away my phone number than force myself to come up with something to post on forums, and wait for god knows how many days before Vivaldi decides that i deserve to use their email…wish they kept phone number verification as an option for those who prefer it that way.

I created my account a few month ago, and I still dont have access to the webmail.

@DoctorG I created my account, followed and used maastodon vivaldi social, imported email accounts, use sync and read the help pages, used this forum, installed vivaldi on my iphone and imac. How and when do I get the vivalidi webmail so I can get rid of outlook mail?
I want to use European stuff and your sevices really look good!

Be active in these regularly, not only once, and .. wait until you get mail about unlocking of Vivaldi mail account.

Too bad.....

[DoctorG]

@hmestrum Sorry, but Vivaldi community does not want bad spam guys here, so the restriction for new users on more reputation and waiting is needed.

@hmestrum I guess how you can get more reputation:

• You getting votes of your forum posts from others
• Use Vivaldi Sync permanent
• Writing on Vivaldi Social

Oke . Now I have vivaldi mail!!
But I cannot set it up. Both in webmail as apple mail client gives problems in connecting.
Could it be that the 2-way communication is the problem as I just can fill in my password and no code of the authentication app.

In the webmail had it setup once but after a while it gave connection error and it was not working anymore.
In the mail client (macos and ios) it cannot been installed, although I had 1 good try in the ios mail app but also that collapsed.
What is the problem?
