Scalix Forums

I have just installed Scalix 11.4 and was hoping to use SWA as a client, for simplicity. For security we also need to disable HTML in emails. If possible we need to block HTML that is received, but certainly we should prevent HTML emails from being sent out.

It may seem a stupid question since SWA is a web client, and therefore presents the email in HTML anyway, but is there anyway of preventing HTML from being transmitted in the email? I can't find anything anywhere in the settings.

Failing that is there some kind of proxy I can implement that would serve that purpose?

Hi,
To prevent sending HTMl emails using webmail, you can go to,

Webmail -> Tools -> Options ->Composing mail

And select 'Default format of message composition' as " Palin text"

Click Ok to save the changes.

Thanks very much for the reply. I've only just checked back.

I hadn't looked under the client settings, as I was hoping there would be somewhere to set it centrally on the server so that users didn't have the option of sending HTML emails. I think this will do the trick for now though, as we are only going to have a handful of users, initially.

Much appreciated.

I don't know how to lock the option out... but here's how to change the default (for new users):

~/webmail/swa.properties:
change:
