Submitting the form on the wiki shows the following message:
Your account request has been sent and is now pending review. A confirmation email has been sent to your email address.

Email shows the following:
sent from: [email protected]
Subject: "Gramps email address confirmation"
Message:
Someone, probably you from IP address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, has requested an account "Testuser2" with this email address on Gramps.
To confirm that this account really does belong to you on Gramps, open this link in your browser:

If the account is created, only you will be emailed the password.
If this is *not* you, do not follow the link.

Confirming the link will show the following wiki message:
Your email address has been confirmed and will be listed as such in your account request.

Then the webmaster gets the following email:
-
from: [email protected]
Subject: "Gramps account request"
Testuser2 has requested an account and is waiting for confirmation.
The email address has been confirmed. You can confirm the request here:
https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/Special:ConfirmAccounts

I login and confirm as best I can that it is a real person, generally in 99 percent of request the person mentions something about genealogy or the Gramps program or has a question, spam account are rejected as very obvious as they have urls to spammy websites!

** Once the account is created this extension creates a new user talk welcome message; whose configuration is managed at https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/MediaWiki:Confirmaccount-welc
