I never sign in through the emails and in fact don't read them anymore, either. My computer guy told me some time ago that it is better to go to these sites through your web browser rather clicking on a link, something to do with virus protection. So when you login to the board, click on stay logged in. Sometimes that option appears before you are logged. Then when you want to come here, just type in Quiltingboard.com and it will directly bring you to the board.
