Signup Email Verification

[wwonderfull]

When using the login with email address, does it disable the "UserName" login or when the user gets the verification link does it verify the user automatically or the administrator has to verify it? I mean how does it function. Does the form need to be converted?

This is from the help:

Account activation
Specifies whether to enable account activation by the administrator. If this option is 'Administrator', new accounts will not be activate until the administrator enables them.
If this option is "Automatic' then the account will be enabled immediately after the user has completed the form.
If the ‘Email’ verification option is selected then the user must activate the account via a link in the confirmation email before it will be activated. This makes sure the specified email is valid.
The confirmation link will automatically be generated. The text of the confirmation email message can be changed in the 'Email' section (see below).
