In the current version of Mystic for Windows is the e-mail validation broken? I added it to the menu but after selecting the menu option it's not doing anything.
I haven't heard of anything. You have to go into Servers>General Options and configure your SMTP server for it to work.
Your node#.log file will contain a log of communication to the SMTP server when a user tries to reset their password so you can go there for more information.
