S-TX missing in user's attributes

I've got some users with umlauts in their names. While Outlook name auto-completion works for most, one user has problems. omshowu lists him as

Code: Select all

Alfred Baer /mail,diffferent/CN=Alfred Baer/CN-TX=Alfred Bär


A user that does not have these problems looks like this:

Code: Select all

Karoline Mueller /mail,diffferent/CN=Karoline Mueller/S-TX=Müller/CN-TX=Karoline Müller


So I guess that this is connected to the missing S-TX in the user's attributes. How can I add this?

Another thing I noticed is that I'm unable to add users with umlauts with omaddu like this:

Code: Select all

omaddu -n "$fullname/mail,mycompany/CN=$fullname" --class full -p $password

The error I get is:
omaddu : [OM 8013] The name/mailnode contains invalid characters

Hi,

For Scalix 10.0 try the following new syntax:

Code: Select all

 ommodu -n "Baer" -m "S-TX=Bär"
which should locate the existing user and add S-TX while keeping everything else unchanged. Normally user added via SAC should have this aspect taken care off.

Regards,
Danny

That did it, thanks. As I mentioned, it's problematic to add users with umlauts using the command line interface. I could be using SAC, but this way I would have to add my spam rule manually with the CLI anyway (the script I wrote takes care of it with sxaa. Is there a way to run a script each time a user is added in SAC?

Hi,

not currently. We are looking into extending the capabilities of SAC thru an API called SAClets. I cannot go much into detail here, as it is unannounced, but it will be pretty cool!

Sascha.
