@Olivier Thank you for solving this problem based on the suggested approach (while even improving on it).

The partner contact with that email-address can't be given access to the portal by the portal wizard, it fails on creation of the user in addons/mail/res_user.py:68 : if not data.get('login', False): raise osv.except_osv(_('Invalid Action!'),...))) 2. The login field is empty, because the portal wizard uses the email field to create a login in addons/portal/wizard/portal_wizard.py:177 : 'login': extract_email(wizard_user.email), The extract_email function in portal_wizard.py uses 'email_re' to determine what the login field should look like. 'email_re' is defined as in multiple places, which is the first problem. It at least in tools/mail.py and tools/import_email.py. (The latter contains email information from the 'steel-sa.com ' (?!?) domain by the way.) email_re = re.compile(r""" ([a-zA-Z][\w\.-]*[a-zA-Z0-9] # username part @ # mandatory @ sign [a-zA-Z0-9][\w\.-]* # domain must start with a letter ... Ged> why do we include a 0-9 then? \. [a-z]{2,3} # TLD ) """, re.VERBOSE) Problems I see: 1. The email_re is defined in multiple places; make it one; 2. It forces to have email-addresses with at least 2 characters for the user part, of which the first must contain a letter; addresses like m...@domain.com won't work then; is there a reason for this? 3. the TLD must contain 2 or 3 characters, which is unsuitable for domains like .name or .info To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openobject-addons/+bug/1199386/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openerp-community Post to : openerp-community@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openerp-community More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
