      You're most likely using the register command incorrectly.  A 
common mistake is to include the nickname that you're trying to register 
within the register command.  For instance, the command should be:

/nickserv REGISTER [desired_password] [e-mail_address]

If you're typing:

/nickserv REGISTER [nickname] [desired_password] [e-mail_address]

Nickserv is interpreting the password you're entering as if it's your 
e-mail address.  Because you're already using the nickname that you 
would be registering, you don't need to tell it to Nickserv.  It already 
knows the nickname. You only need to include the password you would like 
to use and your e-mail address.
