New user e-mail verification?

Is there still verification of e-mail addresses in FT profiles? When new people register, do they get to choose a password right away or do they have an automatically generated one sent to the e-mail address they provide (and this is supposed to happen if you change your profile's e-mail address too). This rudimentary e-mail address verification at least 1) provides a check that the e-mail address stored in the profile is a valid one; and 2) ensures someone else can't use your e-mail address to sign up.

Thanks,
FewMiles..
