[savannah-help-public] [sr #108822] Savannah allows multiple accounts to share the same email

[Bob Proulx]

Follow-up Comment #3, sr #108822 (project administration):

In response to my query Fabio Pesari responded by email outside of the bug log
and therefore I copy it here to keep the bug log history complete.

I don't see any problem.  I don't see why it is inconsistent.  It is only
required in the savane code that the email field be unique so that it can be
used to uniquely look up entries in the database.  Basically it is because
both the login field and the email field are used for database uniqueness. 
Really only the login field should ever be used in the savane strategy.  As
long as the string is unique I don't see any problems with users using
different emails that deliver to the same location.
