[SOLVED] From Field is grayed out when creating Persona

[bbhenry]

I am using zcs-5.0.16 GA

I have added a external gmail account but when I tried to modified the From Field email address. It only gives me one option, which is my local default. and wouldn't let me modify it.

I also tried to do it under persona, same thing. I can't change the From Field email address. only the name part can be modified. Please help.

To manually allow specific addresses-
Admin console gui > Account > Preferences tab> Allow sending email only from these:

zmprov ma user@domain.com +zimbraAllowFromAddress other@external.com


Or if you would like to let them send as any email you set:
zmprov mc COSname zimbraAllowAnyFromAddress TRUE
or
zmprov ma user@domain.com zimbraAllowAnyFromAddress TRUE


Pic of it FALSE:


Pic of it TRUE (notice how you can now type in a value):


So it's not an unchecked quantity vote for Bug 29974 - persona/external account from field address verification
