Right now, when you donate to a donation-pledge-group, if you are not logged 
the below steps are carried out:

 1. The webapp asks you for your email.

 2. If your email is not yet registered in the data base, then it is
     registered and a confirmation-email is sent to such email address.

 3. If your email is already registered the confirmation-email is _not_ sent.


Problem:

 We must send the confirmation-email for the (3.) case too, to avoid I
 donate using your email :D


Proposal:

  We must add the source code to send the confirmation email in case (3.),
  and cancel the donation if the confirmation does not come back in 48 hours.

  * Send the confirmation email. Maybe at:

       Layer-5__DB_operation/Entity.php
         getEntityId method.

           if ( $E1_Id )
           {
                < Here? I am not sure. >
                return $E1_Id;
           }
           else

  * Will it require data base schema modifications? Yes, to mark such event.

  * Add cron job to cancel not-confirmed donations.

I will follow sending you emails about this 8833 task along the next hours.
