@paperdigits I am personally having this email activation issue. I have recently just started to get back into the swing of things after a long time away. Have been trying to change my email address but I am not receiving the confirmation email. I am using a well known email provider as in gmail so not sure what is going on. I am willing to answer questions or try suggestions feel free to shoot me a DM and I will get back to you as soon as I can.
Tried to add the domain as a filter in the Gmail web client with the not spam option. Seems to have not changed anything still not getting the confirmation email.
