[Bug 907903] Re: Users can have no email address

 

After a thorough investigation about these authentication plugin and
import methods, I think it is ok to create new account without primary
email address as this mandatory field will be filled by the user when
he/she first attempt to log in.

What we need is checking the validation of this email address.

Title:
  Users can have no email address

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  This may be tied to bug 548069. However, it seems like that also newer
  accounts, created after the fix was released, on an updated Mahara,
  could still have no email address associated with them.

  Richard said this might be the case due to how accounts were created,
  e.g. if LDAP didn't bring that information along. I think a user
  should always have an email address in Mahara. Otherwise, he can't
  receive email notifications or changes to his account if he changes
  institutions (and auth methods).
