I've been trying to activate the 'Akismet' plugin for Wordpress. I keep getting an error message saying that I need an API code, and a red bar across the top of the page telling me my API code is invalid.

I've followed directions, trying to find my API code (yes, I checked my account page and profile--it's not there)

The only thing I can think of is if they emailed the API code, it was bounced back when I was having trouble with my email.

So, how do I go about finding/getting my code to be able to use the spamblocker plugin?
