public folder receiving email

[rudi]

Hi,

I gave a public folder an email-address to receive emails:

omaddent -e "S=+BB/OU1=mars/OU2=mioco/DDT1=BB/DDV1=Getmail/IA=getmail@mioco.at"

But when I set the default permissions to none and I send an email to this folder, the following message return:

"The attached message was rejected because the Bulletin Board
specified does not allow ATTACH access."

When I set the default permissions to "create items" the public folder can receive emails, but other users who should not see the folder can see it in the folder list. The content of this folder is not viewable.

Is it possible completely fade out public folders which receive emails for user who have not permissions on it.

Thanks for help!!

It most certainly can be set up.

First add the Bulletin Board (Public Folder), which can be done through the Administrator's account via Outlook, or on the command line.

[root@flipper /]# omaddbb -s "News"
Bulletin Board added

Now modify to add an internet address (if desired) such that posts can from outside of Scalix can be written to the Bulletin Board.

[root@flipper /]# omaddent -e "S=+BB/CN=News/OU1=flipper/DDT1=BB-NAME/DDV1=News/IA=News@flipper.scalix.field"
[OM 16958] Added 1 entry to the Directory

Now review the access privledges

[root@flipper /]# omshowacl -t bb -l ":News"
Scalix Administrators config read see delete attach
Local Users none
Default read see attach

Now restrict what the Default users can do.

[root@flipper /]# omaddacln -t bb -l ":News" -g default -c -r -s

[root@flipper /]# omshowacl -t bb -l ":News"
Scalix Administrators config read see delete attach
Local Users none
Default none

Now you must add the attach privlidge for Default users such that post from the outside Scalix (internet originated) can be posted.

[root@flipper /]# omaddacln -t bb -l ":News" -g default -c +a

[root@flipper /]# omshowacl -t bb -l ":News"

Administrators config read see delete attach
Local Users none
Default attach

Now if users access Scalix, they won't see the News Public Folder, but as the Scalix Administrator you will, and all it's contents as well.

Kudo's to kb for this one.

Cheers,

Sascha.

Hi,

I have a problem receiving mails in a public subfolder like this:
:Fax>Order

Commands:
for emailaddress: omaddent -e "S=+BB/CN=Order/OU1=mailnode/OU2=mail/DDT1=BB-NAME/DDV1=Fax>Order/IA=order@domain.com"

for permissions:
omshowacl -t bb -l ":Fax>Order"
omaddacln -t bb -l ":Fax>Order" -g default -c -r -s
omaddacln -t bb -l ":Fax>Order" -g default -c +a

Scalix Administrators config read see delete attach
Local Users none
Default attach

When I send an email to this folder (order@domain.com) I get this message return:
"The attached message was rejected because the Bulletin Board Area or a Bulletin Board does not allow READ access." When a user have admin permissions, it works, when it is a normail user it doesn't work.

Thanks for help!!!!
