Default Email issues mostly resolved

We had a misconfiguration that prevented all emails from sending for a period of time. This has been resolved and we should be back to our normal levels of unreliability.

We have been blacklisted by a few email providers so if you are having issues registering, try another one.

Some email servers get mistaken for being spammers if they exhibit the same characteristics, such as mass mailings going out. The server gets flagged and can be added to a blacklist, which is used to combat real spammers. Sometimes legitimate email servers gets added to that list, and sometimes it is a bitch to get your IP address removed from it. If getDare's server wasn't sending out emails, then all of a sudden emails started going out by the hundreds, it could have triggered such an event.
