(moderation:
Hi, I was active on Einstein@Home from 2005 to 2016 or so. I would like to return to my old account name, gravywavy, but no longer have access to the email address, and have not kept the long hex account id either.
How do I contact the site admins to see if they can work some wizardry to let me return?

You don't necessarily need to have access to the email address, if you remember or have written down the email address and the BOINC password, you should be able to re-attach.
Another idea... Do you have any of your old computers or hard drives? If so, a file probably named account_einstein.phys.uwm.edu.xml in BOINC folder should have your account key.

If so you can click on your name and it gives you the 'cross project identifier'
