 Michael,

 Hi Timothy,

 I confirmed earlier what was reported. When one tries to sign up with
 a username already taken the new user is still sent a confirmation
 e-mail.

 Yep, I completely missed the point of this email, sorry for the
 noise. ;)

 Personally I think the confirmation e-mailing system should be removed
 completely unless someone actually implements confirmation.

 We should keep it around but it is a bug that that second confirmation
 email is even send. Care to open a ticket? I see no reason to remove
 code we are likely to add back down the road anyway.

Instead of removing it completely, how about just turning it off?
I.e., don't ask for an email on login, and don't send an email.

By the way, the confirmation email system isn't used now simply
because one year ago when we were writing the notebook we
implemented the minimum needed for the task at hand, and the
confirmation system just wasn't needed.   And we never got around
to finishing it.   It took *days* of hard work by Bobby Moretti
(and Yi Qiang) just to implement what's there right now.
It certainly shouldn't not be removed from the codebase -- that's silly.

Hi Runde,

 I tried to register twice on the online notebook 
 athttps://sage.math.washington.edu:8102,
 and after the registration page it says that my user name is taken (as
 expected). But, it still sends me a confirmation email. I click on the
 registration confirmation link and it says that I've confirmed.
 It shouldn't send the email at all.
 (it also does the same thing at 8103)

any chance your Spam filter classified those emails as Spam? That has
happened in the past since the server sending the email does something
that often triggers Spam detection. There is a ticket for the issue
already, but I do not remember details at the moment.

Cheers,

Michael
