our email system is broken and due to it being maintained by a third party, we cant access the db directly. i need to grant admin access to a user, but i cant because it [requires an email confirmation](https://meta.discourse.org/t/require-mail-confirmation-to-grant-admin-privileges/60164). i have tried numerous solutions around this but i cant seem to do it, and the only option seems to be to give the other administrator my personal user and password because it is broken. is there a way to disable it? (grant moderation works but grant admin does not). it would be really great to not have these artificial hurdles that cause enormous developer pain for a false sense of security, and then force people to do extremely insecure things to get around these hurdles.
thanks!

given that you can log in to the server
```plaintext
cd /var/discourse
./launcher enter app
rake admin:create
```
