| Jul 27, 2020 at 9:34 | comment | added | Matthew | @Serg If a user doesn't send a verification reply, they don't get to use the fancy stuff on the website, just the freely available stuff. So, when they do send a reply then yes, we mark that in a database. If user doesn't own the address (eg they've borrowed someone else's email account), then I'm not sure what we can do about that. Except if we asked them to verify their email regularly, it would be harder to ask a favour from a friend to borrow their account (because the friend would get fed up of it). | |

| Jul 24, 2020 at 16:17 | comment | added | Serg | Suppose user sends you verification reply. Could you please clarify how you use it? Just to set mark in database? Also, what if user don't send you verification but still owns the address? And what if you receive verification but user doesn't own the address in fact? | |
