The normalize_emails setting makes it so that only canonical e-mails are considered for validation purposes. This means disallowing "plus addressing". For example, with this enabled, bob@discourse.org and bob+foo@discourse.org are considered the same address, and you can only sign up with one of them. Currently this is disabled by default, leading to a lot of spam sign-ups. It's healthier to consider this an opt-out setting.
