https://github.com/ripple/ripple-blobvault/blob/master/lib/email.js#L18
According to this line shows above, when user register on 'mysite.com' (which i setup a ripple-client of my own), he will receive an email comes from 'ripple trade', that will confuse people who nerver knows ripple.

I have tried to fork ripple-blobvault of my own . but in this way, people will not have a 'ripple name', and they can not login 'mysite.com' with their 'ripple name' either.

Any suggestions? Should the 'email activation process' be removed from 'register process' ?

@filod You are correct that by the current implementation either you have to have people get email activations from the Ripple Trade blobvault, no matter what client they are using, or run your own blobvault. I cannot comment on what the RL policy will be in the future, but it's my understanding that eventually they want Ripple Names to migrate from the blobvault to live in the ledger itself (!!!)

Pending that developers actually want to use our email verification service, we're planning to make changes to the email branding. So I can understand what you need, what do you want to use the ripple-blobvault for?

any news on the re-branding email subject?
I also need a workaround in order to avoid explaining users everything from scratch...and mostly change the language
Saludos!

The emails are now generically branded.

Your workaround is coming! We are actually removing the need to verify emails in order to generate Ripple names. We are working on that right now.

Thanks!
But is it possible now to change the email message from the client? or I must fork and run my own blobvault?

@annatonger

No, you cannot change the email message. But, when we remove the requirement to verify an email address in order to create a user in the blobvault, you can send your own verification emails (or not). If you need more details, feel free to email me!

Hi, any updates on this subject? I really need to change the verification emails....
What about forking the blobvault? What are the implications and possible problems?
Thanks

You can fork the blobvault, the only implication is you will be using your own namespace instead of ripple names - ripple federation has done this: https://client.ripplefederation.org/#/register

though not ideal, another thing you could do is provide a proxy email for the user, such that the ripple emails get sent there rather than your user.

Hi! Thanks for your answer!
Does this means that the blobvault is centralized? All data remains on ripple servers? And if I use my own name space it won't be a problem when transacting with ripple names?
Any more detailed info on the blobvault besides the wiki page?
Best,
Jaime

Hello,
Is there any branch that solve the problem of email verification because I need to integrate ripple account into my site (my user should not care about ripple account).
Thanks

The best you can do at the moment, since the user does not care about the
ripple trade account, is use an email address that you provide yourself,
and manually verify it for the customer. You could use the secret key as
the password to keep it secure. We are working on a different flow for 3rd
parties interacting with ripple names/ blobvault, so we have not spent much
effort developing the current system.

I'm running my own blobvault and works like a charm. If you don't need to interact with ripple names it's a very good solution.
