Default From: field

Hi everybody.

Anybody knows if its posible to avoid final users to change his own from: field?


I can't find this option in admin gui, or in any other thread in the forum.


Thanks a lot.

What do you mean by this comment: 'avoid final users to change his own from: field?' What is the problem and what are you trying to achieve?

In the preferences-->Account tab form the user interface, users can change the from field:

Messages sent from this account have the following settings:
From: Choose the name that appears in the "From" field of email messages

I'm looking a way to avoid this.

Regards.

That feature is called 'Persona'. If you wish to disable it go to the Admin UI/COS/Features tab and uncheck the Persona option.

And to make that it's own value so you don't have to disable the whole persona feature vote for Bug 33593 - Enable/Disable zimbraPrefFromDisplay field
ie: Requests a zimbraFeatureFromDisplayEnabled true/false counterpart to zimbraPrefFromDisplay (name in header).

---

Before you ask, zimbraAllowAnyFromAddress (coupled with zimbraPrefFromAddress) is different, it controls letting you set the email address to something@otherdomain.com

Pic of it FALSE:


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