Show account confirmation link in e-mail text
Currently the confirmation Link is only available as an HTML link but not as plain text within the e-mail body. There are some webmail clients (I'm looking at you, Squirrel Mail) that just completely strip that <a href="...">
tag and thus prevent account confirmation. I'd suggest changing the mail body to something like Click the following link to confirm your account: <a href="https://$domain/...">https://$domain/...</a>
(notice that the link text is the link itself)
