Please ask the requestor to try the account creation form again, with the whitelisted email address.
{% else %}When an email request comes in for assistance with account creation because the automated account creation has failed, you can add the address to an account creation whitelist here.
Before you do so, please complete the following 3 verification steps:
If google finds no trace of the person being an ietf participant, he or she could still be somebody who is just getting involved in IETF work. A datatracker account is probably not necessary, (no account is necessary to 'join' a WG -- the right thing in that case is to join the right mailing list, and the person could be told so) -- but in case this is a legitimate request, please email the person and ask:
"Which wgs do you require a password for?"
This is a bit of a trick question, because it is very unlikely that somebody who isn't involved in IETF work will give a reasonable response, while almost any answer from somebody who is doing IETF work will show that they have some clue.
Please note the exact wording. Do not ask about "working groups" -- that will make it easier for people to google for IETF working groups. Ask the question as given above, with lowercase "wgs".
If the answer to this question shows clue, then add the address to the whitelist using this form, and ask the person to please try the account creation form again.
