If you're struggling to get the Cursor verification code during registration, you're not alone. This common issue has multiple potential causes. Let's troubleshoot step-by-step:

1. Check Your Email Service Provider

Problem: Some corporate/work emails (e.g., @companyname.com) or custom domain emails might block automated verification emails due to strict spam filters.
Solution:

• Try switching to a personal email (Gmail/Outlook)
• If you must use a custom domain email: • Whitelist @cursor.so in your email admin panel • Check spam/junk folders • Ensure your DNS records (SPF/DKIM/DMARC) are properly configured Pro Tip: Services like GetMX simplify domain email management with automatic spam filter optimization for transactional emails.

2. Network Restrictions

Problem: Corporate/school networks or certain countries might block email service APIs.
Verify:

• Try registration using mobile data
• Temporarily disable VPNs (especially if using geo-restricted servers)

3. Browser-Specific Issues

Common Culprits:

• Ad blockers (uBlock Origin/AdGuard)
• Privacy extensions (Privacy Badger)
• Overly strict browser security settings Fix:
• Disable extensions temporarily
• Try Chrome/Firefox in incognito mode

4. Delayed Email Delivery

Wait: Some email providers take 2-5 minutes to deliver verification codes. Check again after:

• 5 minutes (Gmail/Outlook)
• 15 minutes (Enterprise emails)

5. Account Already Exists

Check: Attempt password recovery if you see "email already registered" errors.
