@JagWaugh That’s a really good point about potentially getting blacklisted. The default for digests is that they’re sent to users who have been active within the last 365 days (in this case, that means they have posted to the original list within the last year). I don’t think we had any dead email addresses used within that time period. We also gave about 3 weeks of notice that the list was moving so (hopefully) the digest wasn’t too surprising. One thing we thought about is reducing that activity threshold so, for example, only people active in the last month got the digest. That might be a solution for a community in which members change email addresses often. @sam I agree with you that merge is important but I can also appreciate that it’s a daunting technical task! In the mean time, I do think allowing password recovery for staged users would be a simple, helpful addition that would continue to be useful once merge is added. I’ll post on that feature thread! --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/helping-imported-users-claim-their-posts/63892)._
