Why am I not recieving my root password?

Posted on June 12, 2015

I just created a droplet (without ssh authorization). I’ve been reloading my inbox constantly but haven’t got one yet. I’ve tried resetting the password too. Does it usually get this late?

Hello all,

If you happen to experience a similar issue and there is no active problem on https://status.digitalocean.com/ you can check all of your SPAM / Junk folders and also just give it some extra time for the email to be delivered.
