On my 2.3.1-Forum the E-Mail-Confirmation for new Users is activated.
If a new user registrates at the forum he will receive a registration key per E-Mail.
If he clicks on the url at this E-Mail he gets an error message of the forum, that this registration key is not valid and he should check the url inside the E-Mail.
The same happens if you copy & paste the url into the browser.
The url looks like this:
http://domain-name/forum/index.php?t=emailconf&conf_key=8f19d287ce9dc8c 52eba70ba1a3347f5
I tested this several times with Mozilla 1.1 and Konqueror 3.0.3.
Users reported this error also with IE 5.5.
Bye, Mike

I've noticed this error happening as well. I did eliminate 1 potential problem, that causes that message to appear if a user goes to email confirmation URL twice. However, there is still a rare problem when the key that is sent does not appear to be valid.
I have not yet been able to track down why that is happening as in all my tests code works properly.

Don't know if this will help, but I had the same problem a few months ago. After upgrading to the next version it stopped.
I seem to recall possibly having ties to the template. Once I redid the template from scratch that might have stopped it.

There was 1 bug that would give that message if a user accidentaly go to that URL more then once. That bug I already fixed. However, this is another bug that occurs here, which actually causes invalid confirmation keys to be sent out.

I am afraid not, those are just random md5 sums and would yield no useful data.

At least one possible cause of this bug has been resolved, I hope to find the 2nd prior to final 2.3.2 release. This is a nasty bug to track since I've yet been unable to replicate it, but I do see it once in a while on some forums I was given admin access to.

After a few hours of meticiously analyzing the log files I found the problem and have implemented the fix in the CVS.
The problem occured due the double confirmation, on the 2nd run the confirmation key would no longer be in the database resulting in an error about invalid confirmation key.
The proper solution in this bug is already in the latest CVS.

was the key 32 bytes in length? Did you check if his account was already active? Perhaps Yahoo mail client automatically visited the link?
