Fabio,
If you implement a password recovery feature, that would email the new password to the user. That does no good if they don't have access to their email account.
We probably do want an alternate email that can be used for these situations.

Or maybe have primary (company?) email and private email registered.
Instead of re-inventing a whole new chunk of code by introducing a
security question and all, simple allow 2 emails to be valid at any
given time.
