Quite unfortunate.

Unlike back when this Mod was made, today it's really useless to even bother requiring a valid email. Because the autospam programs have defeated pretty much all human verification on the most popular email services. And they get the verification code anyway, directly from your site on pageload after they "click" the submission.. (XRumer)
If you want to stop autospam I would recommend one of the registration time check mods. They're very effective.
I don't even use the email verification anymore, haven't for a little over a year. It's simply obsolete, now.
