===== User Setup =====

Users can add this provider in their two factor profile and will have to configure an email address not associated with their wiki account. A code will be sent to the email address to verify the receiving works.

===== Configuration and Settings =====

Administrators can configure the tolerance when comparing tokens. Keep in mind that receiving emails may not be instantaneous and a higher tolerance might be needed.
