There certainly are benefits, and I did use a temp sign-up storage file myself. I was just suggesting a solution with less work since initially everybody said they had little to no time to work on this recipe. There are other benefits to storing sign-up data, which I also used. Store the IP and you can limit attempts to crack the secret. Store the date to have the link expire, etc. > For using PmWiki data as a back-end to a newsletter or mailing list, I'd > recommend Enemies of Carlotta: I was thinking of Notify/FoxNotify, and other pmwiki based mailing recipes. Eemeli, you already have the mechanisms in your new AuthUserProfiles recipe proposal. Why not have an email-only option, stored in a separate place for these purposes? e.g. SiteAdmin.VerifiedAddresses, or whatever, which other recipes can access. Unsubscribing can use the same mechanism as the subscription/sign-up process.
