Research direction
Start with core.MailService and the errors/processError request shown in the log. Reproduce the report with grails.mail.enabled set to false, then trace why the UI reports success despite the “Mail is disabled” path. Done means the disabled-email case is reported accurately; no test or file is named in the issue.
