Some idiot keeps signing up using different e-mail addresses at my domain, and since you don't use double-opt in this lets these idiots use your system to spam others.

Please start using double-opt in for ne members.

Thank you.

Yes the Double-opt option will help prevent people from invading somebody else's privacy & inbox.

MODS: Better move this thread to "Help us improve" section.

This is a very good suggestion in the interest of the forums at large.  I feel we should SURELY have it along with a few upgrades currently underway.  It could be implemented concurrently with unique user ID.
