Mantis needs the new user to click on a link received in a mail. As per company policy, the sendmail (or any other) application can not be active on server. How do I allow users to register without a valid e-mail?
Is there anyway I can run an update query and change the password directly in the database and hand it over to the user?

add $g_enable_email_notification = OFF to the config_inc.php file. This will set the user's password to blank instead of sending them an email. You can either ask them to change it on first time login or login in for them (without password) and create a password for them.
Add this to config_inc.php:
$g_enable_email_notification = OFF;
$g_send_reset_password = OFF;
$g_validate_email = OFF;
$g_check_mx_record = OFF;
I followed the configuration suggested by @Cody Adams & @Pierre ...
After making these changes in /var/www/html/ithd/config/config_inc.php, i go to reset password in Manage Users ... The passwords resets as blank.
Next i login to user with blank password and change it myself or tell it to the concerned users to do it themselves. This is better than updating the password directly in DB.
Thanks @Cody Adams & @Pierre ...
