From the developer
Arjan Olsder's own description of Turn Admin Email Verification Off, lightly tidied.
Starting WordPress 5.3, WordPress added an e-mail verification step that will come into action about every six months. This step is to validate if the used e-mail address is still in use. On sites with large amounts of users, this can be a very handy feature. On sites with just one user, it can be considered an unwanted nag. This ultra lightweight plugin switches this feature off.
This is an UltraFast plugin. Meaning there is no settings screen. No database connection. No input / output. It’s just a single line of code.
