When you logon we check to see if (a) you have subscribed to newsletters, and (b) if your email hasn't been confirmed in a long, long time.

Email confirmations occur when you click on a link in the weekly newsletter, or when you change your email and click on the 'confirm my email' link that is then sent to you.

The reason we do this because emails go stale, especially free email services like Hotmail and GMail. Someone may sign up with a free account, subscribe to the newsletters, then let their email account lapse with their email provider. We still send emails to that account because they haven't unsubscribed. Later, someone signs up with the email provide with that name and suddenly they find themselves getting emails from us they haven't asked for.

We don't want to send emails to people who haven't requested it so we have put in place limits on how long an account can go unconfirmed before we stop sending emails to it.

There is no load on the servers for this.
