Trying to submit a post to TechNet forum, awaiting "verification of your account"

Question
-
Dear MS TechNet staff,
I am trying to submit a post with an image (a screenshot) to TechNet forum, but it gives me the following error message:
- Body text cannot contain images or links until we are able to verify your account.
When will TechNet verify my account? Do I need to ask for verification in order to start that process? And will I be notified if I get verified or not? Lastly, if someone replies to this post, will I be notified or not?

Your account just needs to be verified. You can expedite verification by replying to this thread with your request.

If you are subscribed to email alerts you could look for a reply to verification thread from MSDN TechNet Service Delivery Team
(also note they only do the verifications twice a week now so be patient)

And how do I subscribe to email alerts? I don't see that option in my TechNet / MSDN user profiles...
