The username and password should be a 1-1 association, meaning you *must* have both in order to login. The only time it would be OK to let people log in with email is if only one account has that email. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
