Case:
- Staged user requests mail to reset password
- Nothing happens
The staged user was created by sending a mail to a secured category, in case that makes any difference.

I think this is expected behavior, as they don’t have an actual account, so the idea is they register an account using the same email address that is currently staged.
It might be good to have more of a story here on exactly what the user wants to do, and what happened to that user that made them want to do that. With some examples!
I’ll think of one. But I can add this is related to this where a staged user is ‘invited’ in a way because the notification mails say they can visit their topic. Which is actually not true.
And because of that they might want to reset their password, as they don’t have one.
As I discussed here, @yanokwa and I just migrated a list with about 3k users using the experimental mbox importer. This script imports all users as staged users meaning they can’t use the password reset feature. As far as we could tell, we had two options:
We ended up going with the second option and so far it seems like it hasn’t caused too much confusion. That said, it would have been ideal if staged users could reset their passwords to claim their full accounts.
