# Email One-Time Password Authentication

Validates credentials and password if exists in current session or generates
ones for session time on empty password which is treated as one-time password
request and sends it to an email. Matches only valid email from allowed domains
using global `allowemailaddresses` and `denyemailaddresses` settings if set.

Additional security can be set:
- *revoke threshold*: login failures limit causing revoke of the generated password
- *minimum request period*: a time in seconds after which another password can be generated

Signup and user creation on first login takes place only in case of using email
as username (not to be confused with the `authloginviaemail` global setting) if
not prevented (global setting `authpreventaccountcreation`) and parts of email
address may be mapped to profile fields using PCRE expressions.

Auth instruction setting (global `auth_instructions`) is recommended depending
on the adopted user account policy and plugin settings.
