Request a token for validating an email address.

POST {{baseUrl}}/validate/email/requestToken

Create a session for validating an email address.

The identity server will send an email containing a token. If that token is presented to the identity server in the future, it indicates that that user was able to read the email for that email address, and so we validate ownership of the email address.

Note that homeservers offer APIs that proxy this API, adding additional behaviour on top, for example, /register/email/requestToken is designed specifically for use when registering an account and therefore will inform the user if the email address given is already registered on the server.

Note: for backwards compatibility with previous drafts of this specification, the parameters may also be specified as application/x-form-www-urlencoded data. However, this usage is deprecated.
