Bad practice, but makes that useless for really helping many folks. Not really hard to implement however, and can use client side and server side checks.

I registered as a new user, with a login name and email., the password was to be sent to my email address. Now, i did not recieve the link for creating the password, and i was wondering why, then i discovered that i had a typo while entering the email address. So i never got the link for creating a new password. I felt this annoying, and it would have been better, if there were two fields Email Address: Retype Email-Address This is just an added verification, and would save some time. Just a thought.
