 * Hopefully someone can help me with this. I’m trying to get a key to activate 
   Akismet. They said I had to join WordPress.com to do it but every time I try 
   to join and put my email address in it says that I can’t use that one. I’ve gone
   through all 6 of the ones I have with no luck. Does anyone know a way around 
   this?

 * For account issues, it’s best if you drop us (Akismet) a line here with the details:
