I registered for Sync on May 2, received the verification email from Firefox Accounts <verification@accounts.firefox.com> on that day, and immediately verified. But ever since, I have not been able to log in and when I asked to reset password, I was told that there is no record of my email address--the same address at which I received the "Verify your account" email.

HI jpenha, Thank you for your question. Is this happening on the same device? Also, in order to further investigate can you please provide a sync log for when this is happening:

  1. In about config turn on sync logging
  2. Try to login, then go to about:sync-logs

Any errors or logs at the time should give a hint to what is happening. :-)
