On this page

mailpreferences.ini [EmailChangeSettings]

The block [EmailChangeSettings] of settings/mailpreferences.ini, with 2 setting(s).

Never edit settings/mailpreferences.ini itself: an update replaces it. Put the settings you change in an override, which wins over the shipped file:

  • settings/override/mailpreferences.ini.append.php for every siteaccess,
  • settings/siteaccess/<siteaccess>/mailpreferences.ini.append.php for one siteaccess,
  • extension/<extension>/settings/mailpreferences.ini.append.php in an extension (read when the extension is active).

Confirm

enabled (the default): a new e-mail address of an account (user/edit, the
admin's edit, the account services) takes effect only once it is confirmed
with the link sent to the new address; the account keeps its old address
until then. disabled: the address changes at once, as before.

Default: enabled.

<?php /* #?ini charset="utf-8"?
# settings/override/mailpreferences.ini.append.php
[EmailChangeSettings]
Confirm=enabled
*/ ?>

NotifyOldAddress

enabled: the old address gets a notice that a change was asked for.

Default: enabled.

<?php /* #?ini charset="utf-8"?
# settings/override/mailpreferences.ini.append.php
[EmailChangeSettings]
NotifyOldAddress=enabled
*/ ?>
