Howdy,
Normally, when you'd want an FTP user to have access to the public_html folder, you'd want to go into Edit Users, and choose "Add a website FTP access user." on the right.
That would setup a user with permissions for being able to write to the public_html folder. Also, those types of users can't do email... otherwise, their email folder would show up in the middle of your public_html directory.

Hello,
well, i have used the "Add a website FTP access user", yes
using email adress=john Home Directory = website subdirectory "photos" but the login permission only shows me "Email and FTP", so i have chosen that
After the creation, in the list of users, this user has only "Login access=FTP", databases = No, DAV=Yes
This user can connect to ftp directly in the /photos directory, that's great but only the validation doesn't work
What have i done wrongly ?
If you go into Edit Users, and click the name "john", and then go into Email Settings -- is there an option named "Primary email address enabled"?

Hello Eric,
