See WAEmailConfirmation in Seaside, that does exactly that.

You can also have a look at SqueakSource. It uses the same principle
for lost passwords.

On seasidehosting.st we use something like:

nextPage
	Continuation currentDo: [ :cc |
		self
			mailUrl: (self session actionUrlForContinuation: cc)
			for: self account.
		^ self inform: 'Check your e-mail.' ].
	self account activate.
	self inform: 'Account activated'

Cheers,
Lukas
