'verify e-mail address' message

[too-old-for-this]

on a regular basis, i get a popup saying i have to verify my e-mail address
for windows messenger... when i click the link, it goes to the wm menu, where
i am told to go to my inbox and click on a particular e-mail message... the
problem is that the message in question has never been sent! what's wrong
with this picture?

Greetings,

You will need to verify your e-mail address. If you'd like a new verification e-mail sent to
you, simply go here:
https://memberservices.passport.net/uiemailval.srf?id=507&ru=http://messenger.msn.com/
Sign in to Passport when prompted, then click the "Confirm Now" button and then the "Send
Message" button.

2.Where is the sign in button on the link & can you please tell me the
phrase that prompts you to sign in

Hi Maat,

It's been removed since this was posted. You will need to contact Passport Services and ask
for one:
