Hi Pat,

This is a bug indeed and I can reproduce it. I never noticed this because all our servers are now federated so we log in using identity providers.

I'll check that.

Regards,

David

Hi everyone,

I've upgraded out production server to 6.2.24 and this is becoming an issue. Can anyone tell me if this behavior is by design or if this is a bug? (I can't find anything on the bug tracker.) Every time I subscribe to a list via email, I need to reset my password on the server. This is annoying to say the least.

Thanks!
Pat

Good morning!

I first noticed this on our production 6.1.3 system and have duplicated it on our test 6.2.24 system.

I have a local user account (e.g. address@concealed). I can login OK to the web interface and manage my subscriptions. Then I send an email to address@concealed with the subject "SUBSCRIBE listname address@concealed". I am successfully subscribed to the list and receive confirmation from the software.

However, my password is no longer valid on the web interface. When I try to login, I get "Unable to continue: The username / password combination provided was incorrect." I need to reset my password in order to continue. This is problematic.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Pat
