Greg, It's not clear from your message, but are you running Sage locally or are you trying to get an account on a remote Sage installation? If it is a local Sage installation then no emails need to be sent for any reason in order to have the notebook interface work. Clarify things if you don't

I don't think that sin(10) is a "surd", though it is certainly irrational and probably even transcendental. If you look up definitions of "surd" online you get a quite incredible collection of conflicting answers, many of which (even in high school revision guides) are almost complete nonsense.
