I get this message: "firefox your verification email was just returned. mistyped email" when I try to create a firefox sync account. But It is a valid email ID that is used every day.

I also tried with another email Id and got the same message. Both are '.org' email IDs, in the format of: username@institution.org

What is strange is, that I could use the same email ID when I had to register on this platform to be able to ask this question here. I could sign up, and got the verification email.

I got a verification email suddenly, but when I click for verification I get this error message:

Verification link expired

The link you clicked to verify your email is expired. Click here to receive a new verification link

However, even if I click to receive a new verification link, I get an email, but end up with the same message again each time
