14.4 Enabling Users to Send Messages to All Users

By default, Novell Vibe allows only the Vibe administrator to send e-mail 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. Open the ssf.properties file in a text editor.

  3. Search for the following line:

    mail.allowSendToAllUsers=false

  4. Make a backup copy of the ssf-ext.properties file, which is located in the same directory as the ssf.properties file.

  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.
