/admin: You are not an administrator for this system

On my existing Mailinabox instance, I just ran a git pull --ff followed by a sudo setup/start.sh.

Now when I browse to https://myserver/admin and attempt to log in with my sole mail user, I get the error:

You are not an administrator for this system

How do I add myself as an admin?

Making a user an admin turns out to be pretty simple. From the mailinabox folder, run:

sudo tools/mail.py user make-admin youruser@yourdomain.com

I’m glad you found the solution. This was supposed to happen automatically by the setup script but I guess it didn’t work.
