> Should we prevent sending email to unverfiied emails? (optionally)

If verification is on and required, I think this is expected behavior in order
to avoid emails ending up in wrong person's inbox. Why not just force it when
verification is turned on?

Having a choice for import is a good idea. We should also discuss what happens
when this feature is applied. Send verification to everyone or consider
existing patron emails verified?

Also, we should keep using their old email for messaging until patron has
verified the new one. So this requires some thought for the design. Perhaps the
whole messaging system should be redesigned so that patron can add n number of
email addresses (that can actually be used for messaging according to patron's
choice) instead of the so-confusing email, emailpro, B_email and so on. But
maybe this is outside the scope of this Bug.
