title: Devise Soft Email Confirmation
body: <p>I have a rails 3 application that uses Devise and the confirmable module. However, preventing newly registered users from accessing the the site until they confirm their email is causing retention problems. Instead, we would like to instantly grant access to the user <em>and</em> still send them a confirmation email. We would then run a background task to lock out user's who have not confirmed their email within a fixed period of time.</p>
  
  <p>Is this possible with the confirmable module? Is there a way to still create an active resource (user) who hasn't confirmed their email with the confirmable module? Any general advice on implementing this?</p>
