4. Configure the following settings:

• Allowed email domains: Optionally, you can restrict self-registration to specific email domains.
• Email confirmation message: This is the email that will be sent to users to confirm their registration.
• Resending the confirmation email: This setting allows users to request a new confirmation email if they do not receive the original one.
• Support contact: This is the email address that users can contact if they have problems with self-registration.

5. Click the Save changes button.
