This issue is a follow up to #2707723: Update register via SMS feature to use phone number provider

Add ability to immediately verify a phone number if the account was created via incoming SMS.

At this time #2707723: Update register via SMS feature to use phone number provider will optionally send a reply confirming account creation with on SMS.
It will also send another SMS asking the user to verify the phone number.

This setting should be optional because sites may want to confirm the SMS sender number was not forged.

Requiring verification ensures a three step verification process:

  • Request account -> site.
  • Site -> heres your verification number
  • verification number -> site

Add phone number verification via incoming SMS Closed: outdated aims to make the third step easier by allowing the site builder to specify a return number in the phone number verification SMS.
