    Ok, will start slowly adding defects to this Requests tracker.
    Nothing urgent though.
    My team has got used to workarounds on those defects,
    but resolving them might improve Tuleap User Experience for other users/customers.

    You're welcome.

    I have a list of currently 24 minor/major defects related to Scrum and Trackers.
    Just ask me to provide some here as Requests,
    in case your team has time, capacity and willingness to dig into those defects.

    I agree that some improvements could be done on this subject.

    sure I can add my personal email. But such manual editing of aliases is a 'hack'.
    If someone will install Tuleap server now, he/she will not be aware of the need for such modifications.

    I also have 'codendiadm' system user mailbox which happily accepts messages form a cron deamon.
    Hence, I'll alias codendi-admin: codendiadm to that mailbox for now, because it is safer to flush from time to time.

    Anyway, the issue can be closed now since I could resolve this problem on my server manually.

    My /etc/aliases has
    tuleap-admin: root

    what alias is missing ?
    codendi-admin: codendiadm ?

    Side note:
    I could solve the problem on my server by eliminating the cause of email-warnings: already loaded cryptography module.
    But, now I have to pay attention on every Tuleap upgrade, and look for new warnings. Because any Tuleap warning will result in 5-7 emails per minute to the root mailbox.

    It seems that you can add an entry in /etc/aliases to define codendi-admin.

    Does it fix your issue?
