Francis and Florian,
  Thanks for the responses!
  I got this working (at least for the default profile, Florian, I'll try 
creating another profile and see what happens and report back on this thread).
  I have a few questions:
  First of all, I'm seeing the following error in the logs during the 
sponsorship process:
Jul 16 08:39:24 email_activation.cgi(0) WARN: database query failed with: 
Column 'category' cannot be null. (errno: 1048), will try again 
(pf::db::db_query_execute)
Jul 16 08:39:24 email_activation.cgi(0) WARN: database query failed with: 
Column 'category' cannot be null. (errno: 1048), will try again 
(pf::db::db_query_execute)
Jul 16 08:39:24 email_activation.cgi(0) WARN: database query failed with: 
Column 'category' cannot be null. (errno: 1048), will try again 
(pf::db::db_query_execute)
Jul 16 08:39:24 email_activation.cgi(0) ERROR: Database issue: We tried 3 times 
to serve query temporary_password_add_sql called from pf::db::db_data and we 
failed. Is the database running? (pf::db::db_query_execute)
Jul 16 08:39:24 email_activation.cgi(0) WARN: something went wrong creating a 
new temporary password for [email protected] (pf::temporary_password::generate)

Should I go into the code and explicitly set "category" to some value, or did I 
miss something in my setup?  I suspect the latter :^).
  Second, even though I've not specified it anywhere on the profile (infact, it 
fails if I do), you appear to be using my "ad1-Sponsor" source that was setup 
from 4.0.1.  It's nice that it figures this out, but seems sort of strange that 
it would just "find" this source, when I have to specify other sources 
explicitly.
  Third, similar to the one above,  it is accepting some "catchall" rule, of 
which I find 2 (in "SMS" and "EMAIL") neither of which appear to be the ones 
being used (based on renaming those to "catchall-X" where X is "SMS" or "EMAIL" 
respectively).  Again, this seems strange that everywhere else there are 
explicit rules, and here is a "catchall" that doesn't seem to be visible to me 
(or modifiable).
  Am I missing something?
  Thanks in advance!
  Don

Have you created a "Sponsor Email" authentication source?

Assuming you're landing on the default portal profile, have you selected 
"Enable Self Registration" in the default portal profile? Have you add a 
sponsor source of authentication to the profile?
