Hello, Just wanted to send a follow up. I'm really stumped one this and I really am open to any ideas. When I originally deployed this install 6-7 years ago, I remember taking great notes, but sadly, they've been lost. I know I installed this from "source", not from my distro's repo. I also remember having to modify a few "non-config" files for my specific setup. I notice User_Local.pm and User_Overlay.pm have slightly newer timestamps that the rest of the files in the lib directory, so I'm assuming that's where the changes are. Sadly, I have no idea what I actually changed.
Also, I've noticed that the problem is not entirely consistent. I've begun sending emails to RT from new accounts when I create them, so my users will be able to access the system. I created 2 accounts yesterday. The first one created the user in RT after only the 2nd email. The second user was not created until the 9th email.
