Adapted to allow anonymous logins, just like with Anon-FTP, when
one gives the magic user name 'anonymous' and ones email address
as the password.

Just add the following tokes to your <directory> setup:

Anonymous 			magic-user-id [magic-user-id]...

Anonymous_MustGiveEmail	[ on | off ] default = off
Anonymous_LogEmail		[ on | off ] default = on
Anonymous_VerifyEmail	[ on | off ] default = off
Anonymous_NoUserId		[ on | off ] default = off
Anonymous_Authoritative      [ on | off ] default = off

The magic user id is something like 'anonymous', it is NOT case sensitive. 

The MustGiveEmail flag can be used to force users to enter something
in the password field (like an email address). Default is off.

Furthermore the 'NoUserID' flag can be set to allow completely empty
usernames in as well; this can be is convenient as a single return
in broken GUIs like W95 is often given by the user. The Default is off.
