What if the user puts in a "fake" e-mail that belongs to someone else? Then any service notifications go to the poor person who owns the e-mail address, not the person who signed up for the account. Also the user would get to take advantage of the benefits of the service.

With B only the initial activation e-mail would get sent there. There is no benefit to the user to put in a fake e-mail address because they still don't have access to the service.

Hope this helps,
Casey

A. If we have a form of registration only with password and username
fields. Then the user may write some fake email (foreign).

B. We use registration activation link sent into email like it is done
on Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter and so on.

Why B is better than A? Why A is a wrong solution? Any arguments?
