It's a S/F known issue.  Users have been complaining about it for quite 
some time.

It worked for Mark Rodgers on his first account.  It worked for me on my 
third account, but I think I had abandoned the 2nd for unrelated reasons.

A new account was actually OK for me because I wanted to change from user 
"Beman" to "beman_dawes".  When I first signed up I didn't realize that 
what they call the "unix username" is used for identification to others 
sometimes, and so is confusing if too cryptic.  The only way to change that 
was also to set up a new account.
