Sounds like the confirmed string is null.
String confirmed = data.getUser().getConfirmed();
if (confirmed == null ||
!confirmed.equals(JetspeedResources.CONFIRM_VALUE ))
{
if (
confirmed.equals(JetspeedResources.CONFIRM_VALUE_REJECTED))
<==================
I will add a patch in a minute:
if ( confirmed != null &&
confirmed.equals(JetspeedResources.CONFIRM_VALUE_REJECTED))
