What exactly is happening? Please answer the following points:

• is the registration successful?
• is the mail getting sent properly?
• is the user able to login even after this error?
• was the user already present in db?

I think the issue is that I have not defined the env var NODEMAILER_EMAIL and NODEMAILER_PW. However the error pop up fails to communicate this issue in case this indeed is the issue

[harshjohar]

Yes, just checked this is the issue. Basically, but we dont need this error handling on prod, because the env vars will always be present there. We can just ask developers to read the README.md and follow all instructions properly.
