Description

I didn't get the validation email when I signed up because it was being thrown away. I discovered this by chance, it's because the "To:" field isn't being set in the email, so delivery was failing.

I was able to recover the validation link and get the account validated, but by now I didn't know the password, so I had the same problem with the "forgot password" function. Finally I set the password.

Then I had problems logging in, my fault I suppose, because validation (and re-sending validation emails) and lost password recovery emails use the email address, but logging in only uses the username and doesn't accept the email on the account; whilst not a bug, I'd say it's a missing feature.

here's some email headers:
