Send email to validate email address while user creation

I have an asp.net site where I am using a XML based Tiny Membership provider. I want to send an email on email address provided by user while he creates an account on my site, which will have link. Its only after clicking on this link I want his account to get activated. How can incorporate this functionality in existing default behavior of Membership Provider?

When you create the user, set MembershipUser.IsApproved to false, and send an email with the link to the new user. The Membership.CreateUser method has a parameter isApproved for this purpose.

When the user clicks on the link, validate then set MembershipUser.IsApproved to true.
