Add Email-Only 2FA

Currently, IRIS has two options for 2-factor authentication. You can use SMS, which requires a cell phone, or you can use an authenticator app. This is also generally going to require a cell phone. I would be helpful for some of our users if we could implement a 2FA that just emails a one-time code to the user so they can enable 2FA without requiring all of their users to have their cell phone available.

    Dear @Guest! Thank you very much for your idea. After a thorough examination it was decided not to iplement this idea. Here's the comment form the produc management team:

    The idea of 2FA is to use a delivery mechanism that forces the use of a different device. Technically emails would of course work, but that would not longer be a valid 2FA.
