I’m running a Vaultwarden docker instance on my Raspberry Pi 4. This morning I updated to the latest version and got this email verification error while logging into my web-vault.

[2022-01-31 09:08:47.366][vaultwarden::api::identity][ERROR] Please verify your email before trying again… IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. Username: xxx@xxx.xxx.

It did work before so what’s the clue here? How do I verify my email address?

Btw: All the apps that are connected to the vault with an Nginx PM are running fine without any error.

Ok, my bad… I solved the problem by myself 😆

I configured an SMTP server in the admin area which didn’t work correctly. Now, correctly configured, the email for verification arrives.
