[Met_help] [Fwd: Re: Met_help post from theocarter2911 at gmail.com requires approval]

[John Halley Gotway]

FYI -
I replied to the current met_help question that's waiting for approval.  But I forgot to copy met_help on it.  Here's what I wrote:

Theo,

Unfortunately, we are only able to provide support to users who have filled out the registration information on the MET website.  We require this step be done first in order to comply with certain
laws in the United States.  Please go to the MET downloads page (http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/downloads/index.php), enter your email address, fill out the "MET User Registration" form, and click
on the "submit" button.

Please let me know when you've completed this step, at which point, I can respond to your request.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
