* Methods for handling registration by email and forgotten passwords. When
* someone registers as a user, or forgets their password, the
* sendRegistrationInfo or sendForgotPasswordInfo methods can be used to send an
* email to the user. The email contains a special token, a long string which is
* randomly generated and thus hard to guess. When the user presents the token
* back to the system, the AccountManager can use the token to determine the
* identity of the eperson.
*
* *NEW* now ignores expiration dates so that tokens never expire
