Steps to reproduce:

1. Load https://marketplace-altdev.allizom.org/popular
2. Try to sign in
3. Create a new account (note that my email account had a '+' in it)
4. Verify the account by clicking the link in the email

Observed behavior:

Verify link returns a 400
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 400 (Bad Request)

Thanks, if you still have the email, can you paste the link?

Please see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1050602 -- as ckarlof said in mail, the Oauth server that marketplace-altdev is currently pointing to is way out of date. If we can verify that this bug still exists when pointing to oauth-stable, that will definitely help us track it down.

Lets reopen this if stable doesn't work
