The Issue

I authenticated my wallet on one machine, and have installed LBRY on a second. I loaded my wallet from backup, but it is now asking me again to verify my wallet. I verified after the backup. Funds are correct.

Steps to Reproduce

install on machine one
install on machine two
Verify (on machine two)

Expected Behaviour

Recognize verification on any node.

Actual Behaviour

Asks for e-mail, and rewards are greyed out

System Configuration

App | 0.22.1
Daemon (lbrynet) | 0.20.3
Wallet (lbryum) | 3.2.3

Please see https://lbry.io/faq/lbry-basics on how authentication/rewards work. You can only sign in with a single email on one device currently (we'll be changing this in the future). If you plan on running on 2 machines, simply don't sign in on the other or sign in with a different email but do not go through the rewards process (rewards are 1 per person/household).

It's also not advisable to run the same wallet on 2 machines at the moment.
