Basically, your user table needs at least these two columns: status: use this signify if an account is pending verification verificationKey: when the account is created, place a random string in here (a guid works well) When the account is started send out an E-mail to the E-mail address that they supplied when they signed up. In the e-mail, provide a link back to your site that accepts the verificationKey and userID in the URL. Only the person owning that E-mail address will have that key. When they click the link, if the verificationKey matches the one stored for their userID, activate the account. ~Brad ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
