+<p>As of this version, Synapse no longer allows the tasks of verifying email address
+ownership, and password reset confirmation, to be delegated to an identity server.
+This removal was previously planned for Synapse 1.64.0, but was
+<a href="https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13421">delayed</a> until now to give
+homeserver administrators more notice of the change.</p>
+<p>To continue to allow users to add email addresses to their homeserver accounts,
+and perform password resets, make sure that Synapse is configured with a working
+email server in the <a href="https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#email"><code>email</code> configuration
+section</a>
+(including, at a minimum, a <code>notif_from</code> setting.)</p>
+<p>Specifying an <code>email</code> setting under <code>account_threepid_delegates</code> will now cause
+an error at startup.</p>
