Hi there,
i would like to have an www.openstreetmap.org account, in order to
correct an entry. It seems, some years ago i already made an account
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/qyanu
but i cannot access this account due to forgotten password.
However, in order to use the "forgot password" function
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/forgot-password
i would need to know the email address.
If it is any @qyanu.net @qyanu.com @qyanu.org address, there is only me
at all addresses of these domains. but all email addresses i tried
result in error message "Could not find that email address, sorry.".
Would it be possible for an admin of www.openstreetmap.org to look into
the database and
1) look up the email address of user 'qyanu'
2) only if it is one of the @qyanu.{net,com,org} domains, tell it to me.
In order to proof that i am the full tenant of said domains, i could
create a dns resource record with some given content (like TXT with
random number), or i can create any @qyanu.{com,net,org} email address
(possibly with a given user part) and send from or receive at this address.
thanks for any help,
Max / qyanu
PS: also any @pogner.{at,net} would be me or my family.
