Description:
When a new user creates an account and clicks on the "Confirm your e-mail
address" link to Special:Confirmemail for the first time, an email is sent
immediately. Subsequent visits to Special:Confirmemail do not automatically send
emails; emails are then only sent when the user presses the "Mail a confirmation
code" button.

There is no message presented to the user stating that an email was sent that
first time. Instead, the message "This wiki requires that you validate..." is
presented and there is a button to "Mail a confirmation code". Clicking on the
button results in a second email being sent. It appears to the user that they
received two emails even though they only requested one confirmation.

The user should be presented with a message the very first time they visit
Special:Confirmemail stating that an email was automatically sent, OR an email
should not be sent automatically the first time they visit Special:Confirmemail.
