Originally created by @josph2001 on GitHub (Apr 17, 2018).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/modoboa/modoboa/issues/1471

Impacted versions

  • Modoboa: 1.10.4
  • installer used: Yes
  • Webserver: Nginx

Steps to reproduce

  • Upgraded an old version (1.9) to current version.
  • LDAP authentication only
  • Create a new entry in LDAP then login modoboa.

Current behavior

  • New user can access only to Settings page, but not webmail. It shows error "Permission denied: a mailbox is required". I'm trying to enable DEBUG mode however there is no additional information.
  • Existing users can use Webmail normally.
  • I'm trying to investigate more into the issue. Here are other information
    • New user is not listed in admin panel
    • There is an entry for the new user in core_user table but not in admin_mailbox.
    • Email client (thunderbird) is working properly still.

Expected behavior

  • New ldap user should be able to use webmail after first logging in.

@josph2001 Have you checked the Modoboa > Parameters > Admin page ? There is an option for that: automatic domain/mailbox creation. Set it to 'yes' and mailboxes should be created.

@josph2001 Have you seen this issue with more than 1 user? Looks like something failed during the creation process...

@tonioo as far as my observation, if I create a mailbox first from admin panel, then login with ldap credentials, everything will be fine. I guess auto mailbox creation is not working properly.

@josph2001 I really don't understand what is happening... Could it be possible to access your server?

@tonioo it seems the issue was with ldap lib (django-auth-ldap), I was upgraded to 1.6.2 (from 1.2) then everything is fine now. Thanks!
