This morning I got an email from a person whose email had been registered on our forum without her permission.  The perp had signed up for notifications on many threads, so the victim got over a hundred emails this morning. 

Is there anything I can do to stop this kind of abuse?

Oh, I was looking for such a setting, but didn't know what it was called.  Thanks.
