Email address has not been verified.
This is a new domain registration and the Registrant email address has not
been verified.


I am a small scale domain registar (rqeselling Opensrs in Canada if you
know who they are.) Whenever someone registers a new domain or changes the
contact info, they now send a message to the email addresses in the domain with
a link you have to click to verify that you got it. No click, no domain.

As someone else noted, way too many organizations have nobody in charge of
domains, they use random individual addresses that go stale, so the domains
go dark until someone notices and fixes the contact info.
