thank you for reporting this @andreagigliola

I expect you could be coming from a verious old setup and running with no encryption.

We are issuing a release 5.0.49 that will make your system work, but actually your recipients will stop receiving reports and you will need to first enable encryption at system level and then perform a new login to enable their account to use encryption.

@andreagigliola : would you please try updating to release 5.0.50?
