Activation code help

So I got a new phone and am trying to log in to DU. Now they want to sent me an activation code.. I get the email 'Welcome to DU.!' but there is no code visible. I tried on my phone (Android), and thru my email in two different browsers, Chrome and Edge. Screenshots attached. Any suggestions on how to sign in to DU like I've done without any problems for the last 24 years.? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Chrome:


Edge:

All you should need to do is go to DU, click login, provide username and password.

You don't need to create a new account to sign in on your phone. Try visiting this link on your phone, and enter the same username and password as you do when signing in on desktop:

I followed that link and got the same result.. I figured out that it was a space bar mistake on my part. But I still don't understand why an activation code didn't show up in the emails that I got from DU if it thought that I was a new account.. Thank you for your quick reply.. it is greatly appreciated..!
