Hi epirat,

Thanks for approving my account. I realized I did make a typo in my email:
I wrote gamil.com instead of gmail.com. I can log in now, but because the
email is wrong, I can't get the confirmation email to verify my account, so
I can't change it myself.

Could you please help me update the email to [email protected]? My
username is luopengyu.

If that's not possible, I also have another account with username Lpy and
email [email protected]. Could you approve that one instead?

Thanks a lot!
