Notify users of Vivaldi webmail requirements on Settings page
-
I'm posting my request here in case this is a more relevant forum:
@quincy8888 said in Notify new users of Vivaldi webmail requirements on Settings page:I'm a new user to Vivaldi, and I noticed some communication issues when trying to add a Vivaldi email. In the settings page, we are directed to a page where we can create a Vivaldi email address if we don't use an outside one.
This is the only information given, with no mention of reputation requirements. After selecting sign up, we are directed to the normal Vivaldi account sign up page, which mentions nothing more about an email.
After creating this account, it's a little uncertain whether an email address has been created, and trying to sign in through the built in browser doesn't help this. First, signing in with Oauth only gives this incomprehensible error message (On a side not, these error messages should be selectable so we can copy/paste).
After searching through the community for answers, I learned that no one knows what it means and I should use app-specific password, which gives this error instead.
This one is searchable, and while Vivaldi does not document it, someone in the forum asked and another user linked this page, which finally gives me the answer to why nothing worked.
My recommendation is that both the settings page and the Vivaldi sign up link add a small description about reputation requirements or a link to the above article. New users will not know otherwise.
