[twitter-dev] Email Validation Check

2010-09-28 Thread Devin Dixon
I already know that Twitter does not allow us to retrieve the users
email when using OAuth. So on my site I am developing a feature where
they have to validate their email before logging in. The problem I am
foreesing is them not using the account associated with the Twitter
address.

So my question is, is there a way to validate that the email the users
enter is indeed the same email address associated with their TwitterID?

No, there is not. Why would it be important?
