@Jan: Hello! In February, we enabled the feature for two projects (Wiktionary and Wikivoyage). This was because we wanted to release incrementally and collect feedback before releasing to all wikis. This recent update confirms that the feature has been released to all wikis and the project is now complete. Thanks!

Hello everyone,
The Community Tech team[1] has released a new feature: Enhanced Password Reset[2]. We developed this feature in response to the #3 wish[3] from
the
2019 Community Wishlist Survey[4]. With this feature, you can prevent password reset emails from being sent unless both your username and email address are provided on Special:PasswordReset. This is an optional feature, available in the “Email options” section of Preferences. If you enable
the
feature, you can reduce harassment through unsolicited password reset emails. For more information, you can visit the Help:Password Reset
page[5]
and the project page[6].
Thank you,
Ilana Fried
Product Manager, Community Tech
