Andrew, somehow I had missed that you said this previously.  I found
the email from about six days ago though that said this would happen
to users without an email address.  I remembered everything else you
said in the email, but somehow missed that part, it seems.

It's definitely possible that I had no email address on file.  I
originally created my account immediately after the functionality was
initially made available.  If entering an email address back then was
not possible or was optional, then I likely never entered the field.
About all I can say for certain is that I had created the account and
logged in to check things out a few times.  While I would have thought
I would have eventually entered in my email address over the passing
weeks, it's within the realm of reason that I simply never did that.

Oliver, if you feel like exploring, feel free, but otherwise we can
assume that I simply never entered my email address somehow.  That
said, you may want to check how many users got lost in the process of
the last update, just in case there's more than a few people who got
their accounts deleted.
