Email to Public Folder

[webdude12]

Is it possible to setup an email address that goes into a public folder automatically?

i.e. an email to test@example.com will automatically go into the Public folder, so any user that has access to that public folder will automatically see the email, weither the owner of the public folder has checked their email recently or not.

Hello webdude,

Mail to Public Folders is handled by the Bulletin Board service on the Scalix server.

Entries can be added to the SYSTEM directory to address a top-level Public Folder: Assuming your Public Folder is called "Top Level", the command would be:

omaddent -e "S=+BB/CN=Top Level/OU1=mailnode/DDT1=BB-NAME/DDV1=Top Level/IA=top.level@domain.com"

The folder separator for Public Folders is a ">" character.

So, to add an entry for a lower level folder, say Top Level>Second Level, the command would be:

omaddent -e "S=+BB/CN=Second Level/OU1=mailnode/DDT1=BB-NAME/DDV1=Top Level>Second Level/IA=second@domain.com"

Cheers,
Yuri

Ok, that command told me added the record. Do I still need to create in the mailbox in 'SAC' so I can add permissions to the public folder in outlook?

Like I said, that command works, but mail is not going into the public follder.

Can you post the exact command you used (change the email address)

Thanks,

omaddent -e "S=+BB/CN=Second Level/OU1=mailnode/DDT1=BB-NAME/DDV1=Public Folder>Public Emails=testing@xxxxxxxx.com"

Hi,

First you need to delete the entry that you have created earlier. To do so use (with appropriate values):

Code: Select all

omdelent -e "S=+BB/CN=Second Level/OU1=mailnode/DDT1=BB-NAME/DDV1=Public Folder>Public Emails=testing@xxxxxxxx.com"


Then please run

Code: Select all

omshowmn

This will show you the name of your mailnode. Then run the omaddent command again this time using the actual name of the mailnode. I also noticed that you didn't include the IA tag for your email. You command should look like this (watch the slashes):

Code: Select all

omaddent -e "S=+BB/CN=Second Level/OU1=YOUR_MAILNODE/DDT1=BB-NAME/DDV1=Public Folder>Public Emails/IA=testing@xxxxxxxx.com"


Cheers,
Yuri
