    Hi Ronald,

    If you can’t get past the email verification because you cannot access the verification email, here’s what you can do:

    If you are trying to update your email address but cannot receive the verification email because your current email is unavailable, please submit the form on the How to Recover Your Jotform Account page. Our team will review your case and assist you further.

    I’m sorry that’s happening, let’s sort it out.

    To check why the Jotform verification email isn’t arriving when you try to publish, I need to look up your email status on our side.

    • First, what is the exact email address you’re using for your Jotform account (the one that should be receiving the verification email)?

    Once you share that, I’ll check for bounces/blocks and guide you on the next step.
