It is strightforward to write this yourself. In my simple example, I generate a 32 byte random ID when the user registers and save it along with his data in the DB. Then, I send him an email with a link like this: www.example.com/register.php?id=7H7dh869ha320J6GhAs89L0lJ00j09df?action=conf irm When he clicks the link, I flip a flag in his DB record that he has confirmed. I have cron periodically go and clean up unconfirmed records that have timed out. JM
