Users created via web UI do not have a home directory

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Log in as admin. Create a new user newuser
  2. Shell expansion ~newuser works. It evaluates to /home/newuser which does not exist.

Possible solutions:

  • Email server app: create any missing home directories at setup
  • User management app: create home directories for new users
  • User interface: add a button that creates the home directory?
