We've got this problem at freedesktop.org as well. When I looked into the issue, it appeared that bots were requesting accounts, and then obviously not replying to the challenge emails, but this was creating new rows in the database that were never getting cleaned up. These would be pretty easy to cleanup if the patchwork interface allowed for filtering on how much time has passed since the inactive accounts were created. Even better would be if these were just automatically purged as soon as the challenge expires. (We had a related problem where a real user let the email challenge expire, and then couldn't re-create a new account until an admin deleted the old one.) -Carl
