I think I may have found a problem with "Put New User Into Newbies Group".

If enabled while the standard vBulletin "Verify Email address in Registration" is also set to Yes, the verification process still goes through the motions, but is being bypassed because members are placed straight into the Newbies Group rather than "Users Awaiting Email Confirmation".

The user still receives a verification email, but when the verification link is clicked they get a message saying they're already verified. Email verification would appear to be rendered useless.

I have for now disabled Glowhost's "Put New User Into Newbies Group" and have instead replaced the process using vBulletin's standard Promotions facility.
