 * Hi !
 * WordPress Connect(WordPress.com OAuth) is giving an error when a user try to 
   login for the second time. When he first signs-up and sign in to the account 
   using WordPress Connect he could successfully able to access the Blog. But if
   he try to login for the second time…This message appears and nothing else
 * > You need to share your email address when prompted at wordpress.com. Please
   > close this window and try again.
 * The same message appears even if we close the window or delete the Browser cookies
 * I think it is something to look into
 * Thanks!

 * As the error message explains, the user needs to share their email address on
   wordpress.com.

 * It is collecting the email while I/My users signed up using the option. What 
   else do we need to share?
 * Please let me know if I am missing some thing
 * Thanks !

 * ThenBrent ,
 * I have tried on your Own demo sites 🙂 I got the same trouble there. It accepted
   my registration at first time. When I signed out and signined in again…It started
   showing the same message
 * I don’t understand what you mean by ” the user needs to share their email address
   on wordpress.com.” . Where else do I need to share the ‘Email’?
 * Thanks !

 * I have the same WordPress auth error only in the second user’s login
    Is there
   a solution yet for this?
