[isf-wifidog] Another authentication method?

[Robin Jones]

What do you think to possibly sending users 2 emails the first would be stating that the validation has been sent and that if they have not received it to check their junk/spam folder, then the next being the actual validation email...

Every spam filter will assign some negative score to messages containing URLs 
with values looking like unique identifiers.

But I think our worst problem is that apparently many HotMail users treat 
the "Junk" button as the same thing as the "Delete" button.  This off course 
is then used by hotmail to score down validation messages going to other 
users.
