Functionality

If You add your e-mail address to your account (at time of creation or later) you will get additional functionality:

• The E-Mail Verification process increases credibility and therefore speeds up account creation.
• You can communicate with others local users not only publicly via their Talk Pages but also privately via personal mail provided that they added their e-mail as well and configured it for this purpose.
• You can get several kinds of notification mails like notes that your talk page has been changed.

For the creation of a new user account your e-mail address is not required.

You can withdraw or change the e-mail address associated with your account any time, as often as you like and whether or not the last address got verified or not.

Privacy

Only Sysops with Checkuser clearance can see your e-mail address and those local users whom you wrote a private mail via Email this user function.
