During the registration of an account, an e-mail address is required,
and this e-mail address needs to be a valid one. This is to make sure
the user is human, reads e-mail, and hasn't already registered for an
account.
The e-mail address is used to avoid automated registrations to a
certain point in a given system, as well as to inform the user of
service problems/outages/changes and to promote new and/or related
services to the user.
