Cannot access phabricator when wrong email entered at account creation
Closed, WontfixPublic

Description

When creating an account on phabricator, if you use the feature "From Github" for instance and you mistype your email address, you will never be able to correct it since the only thing you have access to is the message "please confirm your email" (which you cannot do of course). It could be handy to consider access to the "profile" tab to change the email and send a new verification.

(I'm saying this because it did happen to me when creating an account on secure.phabricator.com, so sadly I'm locked out…)

This is exceptionally rare, strictly user error (i.e., avoidable by entering your email address correctly), and administrators can force-verify email addresses with bin/accountadmin which offers one way out of this state.
