19 out of 20 times the reason they haven't completed their registration is due to them not receiving the e-mail in the first place and sending them more could be a waste of time.

The reasons I have noticed range from their inbox being full, their privider considering them spam, their provider not accepting from your host to them giving a bogus address.

My site often has problems contacting hotmail, AOL and various other un-heard of providers. Lately my site cannot contact msn.com e-mail users at all.

I can see a lot of e-mails comming from people complaining that they keep registering and it doesn't work.

I see no way to win this situation but if it were only due to the new registrants laziness or stupidity in completing the process rather than for all the other reasons this is a nice hack anyway.
