Opt-in should be a configuration option about civs HOT 3 OPEN

We (Clojurists Together) are using CIVS to distribute ballots to our 200+ members. Making the ballots opt-in is quite tricky as we'll need to keep track of which users have told us that they have opted in so we can send their ballot.

I'd be supportive of a manual verification step for poll senders to change this to opt-out. Perhaps this could be coupled with paying a fee to prevent this being an attractive spam tool?

When you send ballots out, you'll get a list (and a CSV file, if you like) of all the users who haven't opted in, so you can then communicate with them out of band. You can always resend the ballot link later.

Yep, the CSV is definitely very helpful but it's still a fairly laborious process to handle. This is our problem, not yours though! Thanks for CIVS!
