[AIRAVATA-2509] Account confirmation, password reset emails not making it to
user

> Email confirmation emails (when creating an account) and password reset
> emails aren't always making it to users. There are at least a couple reasons
> for this:
> * the emails are getting flagged as spam and the user doesn't check the spam
> folder
> ** perhaps in some cases the emails never ever reach the user if they are
> marked as spam and stopped at the email server
> * the user mis-types their email address
> Possible fixes:
> * Can we find out what is causing emails to be flagged as spam? Is there a
> way to make the emails seem less "spammy"?
> ** See for example https://stackoverflow.com/a/396
> * Require that users type in their email address twice in order to confirm
> it. This should help prevent typos.
> * Can we determine if an email bounces back? This might be tricky since I
> think email bounce backs are asynchronous. Perhaps having the user confirm
> their email address is the best we can do.
> Workarounds:
> * use CILogon instead of account creation/password reset.
