I've tried time and again to create logins for my users, so I could just tell them to log into my site and enter their given ID and password. Problem is, they never get an email when I create the account through the admin panel. Instead the user account says `(pending verification) Authenticate user` but no emails have been sent out. I've tried it with numerous accounts through various services (so I know they're not being marked as spam). I've searched around on the site and haven't found a fix. Am I missing something obvious or is this a problem?
They are able create a user and receive a verification email but the point is for me to delegate certain user names but I can't if there's no way for me to verify them obviously. Please help!

I'm reading and trying out the alternatives, but they're not working.
If a user goes to my website and registers, they `get` an email.
If I- as an admin- create a user and input an email, a mail `doesn't` go out.
To me, the zenphoto mail option was fine. So I have to believe it's something else. Maybe it's backend? I don't get any errors about it so I'm finding this weird. But also, why as an admin, if I create a user, should I need to wait for verification? I created them, obviously I want to grant them access.

If you are saying you use the back-end to create a user and fill in his email do nothing more then of course the mail does not go out.
If you are using the register user plugin you must have done something unusual with it since the link to it will not normally be showing for a logged in user. (Pretty useless for someone with a user/passwrod to register!)
Anyway, what you should probably be doing is ceating the user on the backend and sending your user an email with the user/password you assigned to him.

Again, I am creating the user in the backend. It just doesn't allow them to log in without verification though. :-\
If they try to login it returns `There was an error logging in. Check your user and password and try again.` But they have one.
On the admin panel for the user I created, it says `(pending verification) Authenticate user`, when it shouldn't need verification of a user created by an admin.

Awesome. And I forgot to mention that in between `(pending verification)` and `Authenticate user` is a box, but it cannot be checked/toggled/anything. It's just a lightly faded, useless box. Certainly resembles a checkbox, but doesn't have the functionality of one.
