Summary	0005827: Account confirmation
Description	Using 1.0.0a3, all new accounts are unable to confirm so the accounts can never be enabled. Using the url in the email users get the following error: "APPLICATION ERROR #1901 The confirmation URL is invalid or has already been used. Please signup again." This is the same report as bug 0005653. However, it was stated that was fixed in 1.0.0a3. Using the admin interface there appears to be no way for the admin to enable these accounts.
Tags	No tags attached.
