I'm just wondering why wordpress doesn't send confirmation mail every time user change his/her email address.

How do we know that email address is not fake or mistyped?

So can anyone give me some snippet to implement this function?

Update:

Here is the idea.

  1. user changes his/her mail
  2. We send confirmation email.
  3. If the user confirm that email in X days by clicking confirmation link, then the email should be changed. Else we should use existing email.
