I was able to create my own module. It really looks like sharedemail.

<?php
function noemail_form_user_register_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id) {
  noemail_form_user_account_form_alter($form, $form_state, $form_id);
}
function noemail_form_user_profile_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id) {
  noemail_form_user_account_form_alter($form, $form_state, $form_id);
}
function noemail_form_user_account_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id) {
  if (is_array($form['#validate'])) {
    $key = array_search( 'user_account_form_validate', $form['#validate'], TRUE );
    if ( $key !== FALSE ) {
      $form['#validate'][$key] = 'noemail_account_form_validate';
    }
  }
    $form['account']['mail']['#required'] = FALSE;
}
function noemail_account_form_validate($form, &$form_state) {
    $form['account']['mail']['#needs_validation'] = false;
}

and installation file if clicked

<?php
function sharedemail_install() {
  db_query("UPDATE {system} SET weight = -99 WHERE name = 'noemail'");
}

Hope this helps, wow, this is a really old thread. Oh and note that this is for d7

You cannot change another check hook.

What you could try to do is create your own validation and on this form validation (['#validate']) the array will only create your own validation hook.

There is an optional email module that makes the email field optional during user registration. Visit https://www.drupal.org/project/optional_mail , hope this helps.

You can override # the required setting in the field using the API form inside the custom module with hook_form_alter .
