Do users from Twitter need to provide an email adress when they want to edit their account information ?

If they don't, they get the following message :

The email address provided does not appear to be a valid email address.

I think if we offer users the ability to connect from their facebook account, linkedin or twitter, we should offer them the same benefits as traditional users.

I believe this was discussed at some point on the mailing list and it was decided to require the email address.

I agree. There is a feature request for this.
