Hello! I hope you are all doing well

Im using the latest version of Drupal 5.. and I have a simple question.

When a new user registers on the site, there are a few options:

-let them choose their own password
-or they get an email and go from there

but there is no option to make the user enter their email twice at registration.. that would solve the problem of and verification emails etc etc

is there any way to do this?

So, when a user registers, they get these fields:
-Username
-email address
-email address again (must match)
-password
-password again (must match)

and thats it

Please help,
thank you

I don't see where that solves any problem. The idea behind an email verification is to ensure the email address is true not fake. Otherwise I can just type in the same fake email address twice and have access to your site. In most cases you want to make sure the email address is legit otherwise spambots can have a field day on your site by not having to validate an email address.

but sometimes when real people sign up, they type in their email wrong.. then i have to fix it.. plus i have captcha on my site so bots can't just sign up
