* Support e-mail activation of new user accounts
* E-mail message must be I18N/localizable
* E-mail activation must be optional


h2. Issues

No major issues to be considered.


h2. Design

List and describe new manager methods, Struts actions, JSP pages, macros, etc.

* New properties
** user.account.activation.enabled=true

** user.account.activation.code.length=128

** user.account.activation.code.generation.retry=3

** user.account.activation.mail.from=activate@localhost

* Code in UserNewAction.java to send activation email

* New persistent POJO UserActivationData

* Code in UserManager implementations to store/retrieve new POJO

* New table: useractivate

{{{

create table useractivate (

    id              varchar(48) not null primary key,

    username        varchar(255) not null,

    activationcode   varchar(255) not null
