The v1 docs follow nauthera-server's main branch and its 0.x releases on the way to 1.0, so fields and APIs can still change.

v1

mail_relay_missing

Docs version v1 (main)Nauthera is pre-1.0, in a design-partner program

The organization has no email relay, so the message cannot be sent (409 or 503).

Meaning

The organization has neither its own relay (mail.organizations) nor the deployment's (mail.smtp). The admin API answers 409 when creating a user with invite, resending an invitation or sending a password-reset link; the hosted UI's emailed second factor answers 503 when it would send a code.

Impact

Nothing was sent, and for an invited user nothing was stored. Administrators cannot invite users and users cannot get emailed codes in this organization. It is a configuration gap, not a transient fault.

Diagnosis

  1. The admin refusal is recorded on its action (user.invitation.sent, user.created or user.password_reset.sent) with reason conflict and cause mail_relay_missing.
  2. The dashboard's email page and GET /v1/admin/orgs/{slug}/mail show which relay, if any, the organization uses.

Mitigation

  • As an administrator: create the user with a password instead, or ask the operator for a relay.
  • As an operator: configure mail.smtp for the deployment, or a relay for the organization under mail.organizations, and restart. See Email.

Escalation

Escalate when a relay is configured and the organization is still reported without one. Open an issue with the request id, the GET …/mail answer and the server version. Never attach SMTP credentials.
