  Ok here is how I do it on my system. In the prelogin menu the first option  
  is commands ran before the menu is shown, I added a GD display a file which  
  basically states that an email is going to be sent to you right now and you  
  are to get the code and enter it and will be given immediate access.. After  
  that command I put the -V command to validate email address. In the Data  
  field I put 20 which is the access level that will be given to the user if  
  they enter the correct code. In the access field I have s10|s15 so  
  basically anything that is between acess level s10 (new user) and s15  
  (unused) will get that option to email validate.  
  That's it on the Mystic login side. The tougher part is setting up a gmail  
  account to send the request from the BBS. In the Servers section of -cfg  
  choose general options, First enable SMTP send, then in the SMTP Host enter  
  smtp.gmail.com:587, in the SMTP IP Type I have Default IPV4, in the SMTP  
  Login choose the gmail email account you want to use. In my case it is  
  wrgnbr2@gmail.com, in the SMTP Password, you enter NOT YOUR GMAIL PASSWORD,  
  but in the config of Gmail you have to set up a Google App Password to use  
  for older softwares. Do that in the GMail settings (Google it and get the  
  exact place it is located), that will give you a password that is like 15  
  characters. Copy and paste it into the SMTP Password. Then set SMTP Auth  
  Type to login and SMTP Use SSL/TLS to Yes.  
    
  That's it.. Hope that helps..
