Step 3. Choose “Create the account”. The email system will send you a verification email.
Step 4. Now navigate to your current email provider and check for new messages. If you have a spam filter aggressively set, the verification email might be lost in the Junk, or Spam folders. Find it, recover it and select to verify or confirm your email from the body of email.
