Steps to Reproduce

1. terraform apply

Expected Behavior

• User gets created successfully and welcome email is sent

Actual Behavior

error during user creation, fails at "error sending a welcome email:"

Important Factoids

I did not change anything on my side since the last run.
The last time I ran my terraform code was on 04.04.24 and this was working back then.
The user has the same IAM permissions as before (admin), nothing changed there.

Hello @shaderecker I wasn't able to reproduce the issue.
opentelekomcloud_identity_user_v3 wasn't changed from provider side in a while.

[shaderecker]

Hmm, I can reproduce it just now.
With the provided TF configuration files.
Any ideas what we can do / debug further?

[artem-lifshits]

Maybe something was changed from API side regarding newly created projects. Can you try running the same config on existing one?

[shaderecker]

I now set the project_id to the id of the exiting "eu-nl" project.
Then the TF apply worked correctly.
What is different for newly created projects?

[artem-lifshits]

There shouldn't be any and as you mentioned it worked fine before.
That's why my guess is that something was changed on cloud side, not provider.

[shaderecker]

Albeit, it seems I was just lucky.
Now after a few retries, I am facing the issue also with the eu-nl project id:

[anton-sidelnikov]

Hi @shaderecker please ask support if there any restrictions for sending thise emails? This is not provider issue

[shaderecker]

I wrote an email to the OTC support
