Message delivery rule for ooo-replies

[a.sobieray]

Hi experts,

I'd like to create a message delivery rule which suppresses out-of-office-replies to the internet for messages beeing received via distribution list.

Here's an example:
User A is member of distribution list DL.
User A activates his ooo-reply.
User A receives an e-mail from the internet, sent directly to his address. Then the ooo-reply should be sent to the internet.
User A receives an e-mail from the internet, sent to internet address of distribution list DL. In this case scalix should NOT send an ooo-reply to the internet.

Can this be managed by use of message delivery rules (or is there a better way to do) ?
Is there a possibility to distinguish between messages received directly for my internet-address and messages received as member of a distribution list (i.e. in mail header,...) ?

No standard way you can do this. I ended up with crontab job to patch newly created ooo rules.

Definitely not the best implementation, but works for me

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
# You may want to run this script from crontab say every 3 hours
# omshowu -m all | while read PATCHUSER ; do echo "Patching user: $PATCHUSER"; /opt/scalix/bin/patchoof "$PATCHUSER" ; done


if [ "$1" == "" ]; then
    echo "This script will add filter to the existing Scalix out-of-office rule to reply only if user's address is in TO or CC."
    echo "Usage: $0 \"Scalix User Name\" [--unpatch]"
    exit
elif [ "$1" == "--cycle" ]; then
      echo "Cycle start"
     /opt/scalix/bin/omshowu -m all | while read PATCHUSER ; do echo "Patching user: $PATCHUSER"; $0 "$PATCHUSER" $2 ; done
     exit
fi

userfolder=`/opt/scalix/bin/omshowu -n "$1" -f|grep "User Folder"`
if [ "$userfolder" == "" ] ; then exit; fi
userfolder=`echo $userfolder| sed "s/User Folder : //"`
userfolder=`echo $userfolder| sed "s/\/00000v8:1//"`
userfolder=`/opt/scalix/bin/omrealpath $userfolder`
#echo User home folder is: $userfolder

MYTEMP=`mktemp`
MYTEMP_TOUCHED=`mktemp`
MYAA="$userfolder/000003d"
IS_EXIST=`/opt/scalix/bin/sxaa --user "$1" --info 501`
if [ "$IS_EXIST" == "" ]; then
    echo "Sorry, no OOF rule 501 defined for user $1. Nothing to patch/unpatch"
    exit
fi

/opt/scalix/diag/tfbrowse  -w '%' -c -i $MYAA > $MYTEMP
#cat $MYTEMP
IS_PATCHED=`grep -A 1 "AA_NO             (DN)  0x[1|0]  501" $MYTEMP |grep "SIMPLE_REPLY"`


case $2 in

    --unpatch)
    if [ "$IS_PATCHED" == "" ]; then
        echo "Removing patch"

   sed '

Messages from robot@domain.com address will be ignored by ooo too.
