Public bug reported:

Mahara v1.3.6
Linux 2.6.18-238.5.1.el5 (Centos 64bit)
PHP 5.2.10 (cli) (built: Nov 13 2009 11:44:05)

Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2009 Zend Technologies
Apache/2.2.3
mysql-server-5.0.77-4.el5_5.5

We have an institution setup with MS Active directory authentication. If
a new user logs on and does not have the email field setup in AD, you
are prompted to enter the email address and you are logged on
successfully. You can then access Mahara, change your profile etc.
However if you log off you cannot log back on. Mahara just displays
"probably a bug".
