+<h3>Summary</h3>
+
+    <p>This module provides authentication front-ends such as
+    <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_basic.html">mod_auth_basic</a></code> to authenticate users similar
+    to anonymous-ftp sites, <em>i.e.</em> have a 'magic' user id
+    'anonymous' and the email address as a password. These email
+    addresses can be logged.</p>
+
+    <p>Combined with other (database) access control methods, this
+    allows for effective user tracking and customization according
+    to a user profile while still keeping the site open for
+    'unregistered' users. One advantage of using Auth-based user
+    tracking is that, unlike magic-cookies and funny URL
+    pre/postfixes, it is completely browser independent and it
+    allows users to share URLs.</p>
+
+    <p>When using <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_basic.html">mod_auth_basic</a></code>, this module is invoked
+    via the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_basic.html#authbasicprovider">AuthBasicProvider</a></code>
+    directive with the <code>anon</code> value.</p>

+      (<code class="directive"><a href="#anonymous_verifyemail">Anonymous_VerifyEmail</a></code>)</li>

+    <p>A list of one or more 'magic' userIDs which are allowed

+    space in a userID as well as the \ escape character.</p>
+
+    <p>Please note that the comparison is
+    <strong>case-IN-sensitive</strong>.<br />

+      Anonymous anonymous "Not Registered" "I don't know"

+    <p>This would allow the user to enter without password
+    verification by using the userIDs "anonymous",
+    "AnonyMous", "Not Registered" and "I Don't Know".</p>
+
+    <p>As of Apache 2.1 it is possible to specify the userID as
+    "<code>*</code>". That allows <em>any</em> supplied userID to be
+    accepted.</p>
