self-registration account confirmation

Hi,

We use email-based self registration user accounts and I have noticed that some users do no confirm their accounts. It seems that after a period of time, these accounts get automatically deleted by the system.  

What is the duration/time frame a user has to confirm their account after they create an account using email-based self-registration?

Thanks,

Peter

Hi Peter,

There is a setting called "Delete not fully setup users after" found in Site Admin / Server / Cleanup which allows you to set the time period.  I think by default it is set to 7 days
