Since I can’t access the web environment of yunohost,
I added my main user manually through sudo yunohost user add folatt.
It appears in the yunohost user list
admin@Gildurklaus:~$ sudo yunohost user info folatt
firstname: Folatt
fullname: Folatt RPG
lastname: RPG
mail: folatt@guilder-test.eu.org
mail-aliases:
- root@guilder-test.eu.org
- admin@guilder-test.eu.org
- webmaster@guilder-test.eu.org
- postmaster@guilder-test.eu.org
mailbox-quota:
limit: No quota
use: 0.0K
username: folatt
But it doesn’t appear as an unix* user.

If I remember correctly, that was not the case when I added a user via the web application.
Is this a bug?
Did I misremember?
Or did I do something wrong?
P.S.
I always get confused by terminology.
Is a user in /etc/passwd in linux called a UNIX user?
What’s the correct term for a user within Yunohost? A Yunohost user?
Is a Yunohost also an ldap user?
