To complete +the login, a one-time-use link is emailed to the user, and they can simply +open that link in their browser. + +It is enabled by default, but can be turned off if you want to only use +some other form of authentication, such as [[passwordauth]] or [[openid]]. + +Users who have logged in using emailauth will have their email address used as +their username. In places where the username is displayed, like the +RecentChanges page, the domain will be omitted, to avoid exposing the +user's email address. + +This plugin needs the [[!cpan Mail::SendMail]] perl module installed, +and able to send outgoing email. |
