Wendy, I just opened security.properties and I do not see how you'd turn off the requirement for email validation?

Sorry. It's a known issue with the version of Redback that Continuum 1.1 uses. The easiest thing to do is click 'Resend Validation' and click the link in the email, which will validate the account. You can also turn off the requirement for email validation altogether in security.properties. -- Wendy This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential, proprietary and intended solely for the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
