UI for admins to confirm users manually #1297
Comments
FastMail is just running SpamAssassin, using a global bayesian filter by default, though users can switch to a local filter after classifying enough positive and negative messages. For reference, once your emails finally came through to me, the one email I inspected had a spam score of 3.8 (I believe the default threshold for the Spam folder is 5.0), with the following calculation:

Thanks for following up @kballard! |
Can this be closed? Or do we consider that having a rake task (or any other method, maybe a UI in the admin interface) to manually confirm users is a feature we want to have? It is IMO, but I'd like to hear your thoughts |
It's a fair question! I've been doing it enough that, regardless, I'll be keeping the changes in #1300 alive in my fork. |
I'm thinking having a UI in the admin interface for this would better really, but yeah, I feel like this would be a useful feature, along with maybe letting admins decide to not send emails when a user registers (that would enable instances with only manual approval of new users) |
I agree that there should be an admin UI for this, because there will always be cases of people not getting the emails that they should. And I also agree that we should have a way for an instance to require admin approval for all new users. I'm already a member of an instance that would want that, because it's for a small social group of people who already know each other. |

I've been having issues with confirmation emails getting stuck in pre-inbox spam filters (looking at you, FastMail...) and it'd be nice to be able to run a Rake command to confirm them manually. I'll take a look to see what I can do.
