Question

This is a general question. The login control from the Membership Provider asks for verification of the user’s password but not of the email address. To add verifaction of the email address, do I need to build a custom login control?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

In order to validate the E-Mail address in addition to the username, yes you will need to build a custom validation control. You can then authenticate the user using your own function.

You can then handle the Authenticate event to run your own logic: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.login.authenticate.aspx
