Creating issue by email from known but non-member users
Added by Luca Lesinigo about 8 years ago
Hello forum. We set up creation of new issues from emails, with Redmine 3.3.0.stable, and that is working perfectly as long as the mail sender is explicitly set up as a member of the project.
All issues created by email go the same "New issues" project (that's sort of an inbox before an admin moves the issue where appropriate).
I have created a new "add issue" role and, as name suggests, the only privilege it has is "Create issues".
If I assign role "add issue" to user "foo" for project "new issues", and Foo sends an email, the issue gets created.
But if I remove Foo from the new issues project and assign role "add issue" to "Not members" for project "new issues", and Foo sends an email, the issue doesn't get created and I get a nasty entry in the log saying MailHandler: unauthorized attempt from Foo.
Am I missing something? I'd like to have all known redmine users able to send emails to open issues, and these new issues should show up in our "new issues" project.
But I'd like to not have to manually manage every user to that project with role "add issue"... I thought the non-members trick would do it but doesn't appear to work.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
