2.6 Enabling Users to Send Messages to All Users

By default, OpenText Vibe allows only the Vibe administrator to send email messages to the All Users group. If you want to change this functionality to allow anyone to send messages to the All Users group:

  1. Change to the following directory:

    Linux:

    /opt/novell/teaming/apache-tomcat/
                               webapps/ssf/WEB-INF/classes/config

    Windows:

    c:\Program Files\Novell\Teaming\apache-tomcat\
                               webapps\ssf\WEB-INF\classes\config
  2. Make a backup copy of the ssf-ext.properties file, which is located in the same directory as the ssf.properties file.

  3. Open the ssf.properties file in a text editor.

  4. Search for the following line:

    mail.allowSendToAllUsers=false
  5. Open the ssf-ext.properties file in a text editor.

  6. Copy the mail.allowSendToAllUsers=false line from the ssf.properties file to the bottom of the ssf-ext.properties file.

  7. Change false to true, so that the line now reads mail.allowSendToAllUsers=true.

  8. Save and close the ssf-ext.properties file.

  9. Close the ssf.properties file without saving it.

  10. Stop and restart Vibe to enable users to send messages to the All Users group in your Vibe site.
