JIRA Mail Handler does not create issue when sender is a JIRA deleted user.

XMLWordPrintable

      Summary

      It's not possible to create a JIRA issue through the mail handler if the email sender references a deleted JIRA user.

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Create a user in JIRA.
      2. Delete the user.
      3. Use a JIRA mail handler (with default reporter) that creates issues in Projects and send an email using the deleted user email account.

      Expected results:
      JIRA should create the issue and use the default reporter as the issue reporter

      Actual results:
      JIRA does not create the email and replies the sender with the following message:

      "Cannot create issue due to invalid license: [Sorry, you can't create any issues right now, as you need to have access to a JIRA application to be able to create issues. To gain application access you need to be a member of a group assigned to an application.]"

      Environment

      Identified on JIRA Cloud.

      Workaround:

      Recreate the user with the same credentials as before. Change the user email and delete it afterwards.
