Description:

Rocket.Chat is able to sent an email to a new user in order to verify the email address. The admin can switch this option on and off via the setting "Accounts_EmailVerification".

Expected behavior:

When setting "Accounts_EmailVerification" to false in the admin panel, no email verification is in place (meaning: sending no email to an user, asking for a click on the provided link).

Actual behavior:

If "Accounts_EmailVerification" is false, an verification email is sent anyway.

Server Setup Information:

  • Version of Rocket.Chat Server: 0.58.1
  • Operating System: Linux
  • Deployment Method(snap/docker/tar/etc): AWS
  • Number of Running Instances: 2
  • Node Version: v4.5.0

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Configure SMTP
  2. Set "Accounts_EmailVerification" = false
  3. Register a new user with a valid email adress
  4. The user will receive a verification link

You can set in (1) the value "true", try it, and make another iteration with "Accounts_EmailVerification" = false. Every time, an email will be sent.
