I saw Paul's offer for the Rocket Mass Heater Plans: 6" Annex Variation and
signed up: http://richsoil.com/email.jsp

I used a different email address from the one for the permies forums.
I received my first email:
permies news; 80 plants promo; the permaculture movement; google earth

but I did not receive the plans for the Rocket Mass Heater.

Do I need to do something else?

Hi Sam!

Once you confirmed your subscription, the link to the plans would have came to you in an email titled "subscribed to Paul Wheaton's permaculture".

Did you get that email?

Hi, Cassie.

I have not gotten that 'subscribed' email.
I did receive a couple of the daily emails, though.

If it makes a difference, I am running the Pale Moon Browser - a fork of Firefox.
In the signup page, there was no input blocks, other than the one on the top right side of the page.

No input blocks appeared below the picture of wilbur the calf.

What exactly do you mean when you say "input box"

There was only the one place to enter any information, to accept the offer.

That was for an email address, only.
That location is at the top right side of the page.

That's the way it worked on my system too (w/FireFox) when signing up on 02/06/2015. And I quickly received "confirm your subscription" e-mail, and clicking on the confirmation link in that message brought up the confirmation web page. Then shortly thereafter the second / confirmation e-mail arrived with subject line "subscribed to paul wheaton's permaculture". I can confirm that contained in the body of that message is a plain text URL of the annex6 rocket mass heater plans. Copy and paste that URL to the web browser accessed the rocket mass heater plans pdf file just fine.

OK, a shot in the dark. Maybe the confirmation e-mail is ending up in the junk mail folder on some folk's systems?

Hi, Byron.

It is entirely possible that I deleted the confirmations, not expecting anything else to be included. If that is the case, then I no longer have the link. I treat the junk folder as an extension of the regular email folder. I always check it for misplaced emails.

If I deleted an email with the link, could Cassie send me that link?
Or would it be better to simply sign up again, with a different email.?

Never mind.

I signed up with the email I used, here,.
Confirmation went ok, again.

But, this time, I received an email I did not receive, before.

Thank you.

Yay! Glad you got it figured out sam!

Yeah, sometimes our emails go into spam folders, which sucks, but it just happens sometimes.

Thanks for helping out Byron!
