I don't know why you want to do this (I know there can be legitimate uses but there seem to be a lot of hackers and weird people around, recently), but the simple solution is to have a specific email address for the account.
You can't have the same email for more than one user..

I know, but you need an email adress for that user.

You have to get a new email address and register with it.

Then you should get the confirmation email.

You may also want to verify that in users > user settings

you can pick whether a new registration is activated by the administrator or by the user.

if it is the administrators, you will always have to review new members and activate their accounts yourself.
