|Subject: [DOC] mod_auth_anon.html corrections
|
|The mod_auth_anon.html documentation describes the default of
|the Anonymous_LogEmail and Anonymous_MustGiveEmail being "off", but in
|the code, the default seems to be "on".
|
|The "Example" section could be improved because when used as-is, the
|server returns a [500] server error (configuration error:  couldn't check
|user.  No user file?). I added a comment to clarify things.
