With the arrival of the New Year, I'm beginning my migration to PlusPora, currently just lurking until I get a feel for the place at https://pluspora.com/people/cad99240f0c001363c74005056264835 #SignalFlare #GplusRefugee #Pluspora https://pluspora.com/people/cad99240f0c001363c74005056264835

I have a question (and I suspect I know the answer, but here goes)... As part of my New Year resolutions, I've begun migrating from G+ to Pluspora. Initially, it worked, but I find that having been permitted to sign up with a gmail 'plus' email address (my gmail with '+pluspora' inserted), I can't now log back in (invalid format) with that email. Question: is this irretrievably a feature (bug) of the current Diaspora login process - meaning I'll have to ditch the account and create a new one based on an 'unplussed' email - or can I use the 'plussed' one somehow? Any information/thoughts much appreciated. D.
