First, please redact your passkey. Treat it as secret.

Please reread the users guide.
Your passkey is not a password.
If you have not registered an account for web control, please do so.

Joseph said that restricting the passkey ownership to a single web control account is deliberate.

He is still considering alternatives for handling registration emails.

I have the same problem. I have run folding on my machines for a long time but when I tried to add another machine I was asked to register an account. I have never received the confirmation email and it has not gone to spam. I am completely stuck as the account is set up but not registered and there is no method of trying again.

Some email services will silently block the email.
Please try a popular service, such as gmail.
