Community Modules

Verify Email Addresses

The last thing you want is a bunch of people registering on your site with fake email addresses. It usually results in untraceable spamming and a whole lot of admin.

Nip the problem in the bud by using Drupal's "verify email" module. You simply install it and configure some basics and, just like that, you've probably halved the amount of spam that will end up on your web site!

The email verify module can be irritating when it doesn't work properly, especially if you've configured it to actually check that the domain exists but I say that it's an annoyance we can live with.

User Registration Notification

Drupal was made for community web sites but it lacks some of the most important features that a site like that requires.

One of those features (for a new site) is to be notified when someone registers so you can check out their profile, welcome them to the community and generally get the ball rolling.

As an example, I run a free article directory and I like keeping tabs on new users so that I can spot a spammer quickly and put an end to the trouble before it even begins!
