Why confirm via mail at all?
- justoreply 3y agomaybe to confirm that the email is valid?
- geek_at 3y agoCorrect! With schools and students there is always incentive for shenanigans. If I didn't test for emails they could just book-block all teachers. There would be other ways to clog the system using trashmail providers but thankfully no student cared enough for that yet
- carstenhag 3y agoThis is a requirement in some jurisdictions (double opt in) for some cases. Not sure about "User has a confirmed email + account at our service, he wants to sign up for a reminder" use case though.
- denton-scratch 3y ago"Double opt-in"is a spammer term for what normal folk refer to as "confirmed opt-in".
