As a user who is new to the internet, I want Persona to offer me a way to create an email address so that I can use the internet #61

Copied from mozilla/browserid#3967 - @nukeador, please adjust the title to better reflect your thinking. The format of titles in the repo are "as X, I want Y so that Z"

We expect a lot of new people to get online thanks to projects like Firefox OS, and for that reason it's likely to happen that a user that wants to log in with Persona doesn't have an email account yet.

For that reason I think it would be useful to have a bottom link "I don't have an email yet" where we can offer ways or services to create one, such as Thunderbird does right now on first run. (It would be awesome to have an API to create the email without having to leave Persona site)

Email providers should be chosen carefully to be just services that respect Mozilla's user values and privacy.
