SurgeMail Version 7.3p-39
I got the update installed, and when I test this feature, I’m getting an error even though the user I’m sending with is in the “manager_username” setting for this domain.
I logged in with brad@x.com (removed domain name for this email)
Sent an email to $everyone@x.com
In the logs I see:
28 08:47:41 [60805855] Received x.x.x.x brad@x.com <$everyone@x.com> 624 <5c77f48d.170.2ba8.5ca2@x.com> "Relay=smtpauth=brad@x.com, nrcpt=2, s=[Test Message]"
28 08:47:41.93 [60805855] Failed x.x.x.x <brad@x.com> |everyone@x.com 624 <5c77f48d.170.2ba8.5ca2@x.com> "[127.0.0.1] everyone: User must be listed in [g_]manager_username setting"
I also tried an email to $allusers@x.com, but I got this error:
"No such user ($allusers) -ERR $allusers@emeraldcityschools.com not found"
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!
Brad

Thanks! I’ll be watching the release notes.

We'll add a couple of aliases for this purpose.

Thanks for the input. With bulletins, the expiration date/time is that part that doesn’t really fit into this use case. The admin would either have to always login & set an arbitrary expiration (long enough so that all users login in time to see it, but short enough so that a new user a year later doesn’t get flooded with old messages that don’t apply anymore) or leave the expiration off and go back and remove Existing Bulletins. Both of which are still a manual process for the end-user/administrator.
The desired functionality would be to send an email to something like allusers@domain.com and have it deliver an email to all the current users at that point in time.
Then 3 months down the road, users have been added/removed, etc… so at that time emails sent to allusers@domain.com would go to the current updated group of users.
I know it’s possible to setup domain-specific Authent address books by creating a Surgeweb shared address book with Read: “*”, Write: “READ ONLY” & Type: “Authent”. In Surgeweb, you have to manually check all the boxes under this Authent address book to send an email to all users. Is there a way to set an email address like allusers@domain.com to send an email to all the users listed in this Authent database?
Just trying to remove all the manual pieces for the end-user if possible.
Thanks!

Check out the bulletin feature. That should do what you want.
Is there a way to setup a mailing list (dlist) so that it will always contain all active users? As accounts get removed/deactivated, can a list be set to always stay current for a particular domain?
Thanks,
