Unable to update accounts with @ in their username

[amengus87]

When we want to update a user with username having '@' character we obtain a 404 error :

curl 'https://stalwart.xyz/api/principal/xyz@abc.com' \
-X 'PATCH' \
-H 'Content-Type: text/plain;charset=UTF-8' \
--data-binary '[{"action":"set","field":"quota","value":1073741824}]'

404 page not found

You need to encode the address.

[amengus87]

We can't as we are using your own UI! The curl example is only to show you what is done behind the web browser.

If you create a user with webadmin ui you will be able to reproduce, the bug is the same as : https://github.com/stalwartlabs/mail-server/issues/761#issuecomment-2354708828

@amengus87 try upgrading to the latest webadmin version. If it is working properly at the moment.

Try updating both Stalwart and the webadmin to the latest version.

@mdecimus Done this morning too

Please set the logging level to trace and check your server logs for more details.

@mdecimus We are now using the CLI instead of the webui. Works inside CLI

[mdecimus]

That's fine but please note that the user management functionality has been removed from the CLI in v0.10.0.

Good to know :)

Just found the problem => Our reverse proxy wasn't allowing 'PATCH' methods to pass through.

Sorry for any trouble and time lost
