    Multiple members with same email address?

    Anyone know if it is possible to use the membership system with multiple members perhaps having the same email address?  Is there a config switch to allow this?

    Not a major problem if it's not possible as I realise it's not an ideal situation, I'm just converting a pre-existing app that allows it.  If I can't I will have to modify the app to accommodate this....

    Anyone know if this can be done?

    I have a site where most members are going to be senior citizens, and they often share their email adress.

    So in this case its quite a big problem...

    Any help?

    I haven't tried this in Umbraco, but the ASP.NET MembershipProvider, which is also what Umbraco uses (well, Umbraco has it's own implementation of it), has a RequiresUniqueEmail property, so I'm sure the Provider can handle users with same e-mail.

    But again, I haven't tested this in Umbraco.

    Go try it out, create two members in the back-office with the same e-mail address!

    Any joy with this?

    I've set the setting in web.config to  requiresUniqueEmail="false" but it doesn't seem to have any affect.....?
