Using Emails to authenticate

Hi all,

I guess this question has been asked here a couple of times but I'm going to ask it anyway.

I'm developing a Django application/website and I have a need to use the email for authentication instead of username. I'm more keen to find out how you handle the following:

- The default length of the email field

- Ensuring that the email field remain unique

- Making/Synchronizing the changes with the database

I'm more biased towards handling this myself rather than using the available packages out there.

Does any one have a pointer to a link on how this is handled?

Thanks.

Regards,

F. O. O.
