Can't find authentication ticket

I was asked to reply to an email from Dmoz to confirm you had my correct email address. However, when I did this I got a response saying:
"Your Open Directory editor application could not be confirmed. The error received was: Can't find your authentication ticket"

I didn't change the subject line, just clicked reply and sent as it was. Have tried to send again, removing everything apart from just the key itself. Haven't had a response to that yet, so not sure if it made a difference.

My registration key is: 72edafb0b2fe816bf78c816e4c6058df
Username: Pixiepea
The category I have volunteered to become editor of is:
Arts|Crafts|Modeling Compounds|Precious Metal Clay

Would appreciate any help on what I should do.

Best regards
Petra

The information has been passed on to the tech person. Someone will get back to you when we know more.

Thanks for that,

How long should I wait before following up again? (In case I don't hear anything from anyone...)

It might be a few days - we have limited tech resources.

Our tech person was unable to find your application in the prescreen queue. You are going to have to reapply. Sorry about that.
