Pydio Cells Home Edition 4.3.1 Is the email address only used for password resets and not logins? Receiving “login.failed” if I use my email address. Thanks. ---

Hello, Email address is an attribute of user object. Please use User.Login (don’t use User.Email) as Identity when you log in. ---

Just seems weird that I can use the UserID or email to reset a password but not both to login. Thanks. ---
