Configuration

Configurations (Test preparations)

Mailtool should function adequately OOTB for *nix systems (i.e. systems which have /tmp), but attachments may have a problem on Windows systems without configuration.  Group awareness will also typically need configuration, and is the only setting left un-commented below.  The specific mailtool settings which will be documented for 2.4 are:

# MAILTOOL

# Maximum number of allowed attachments per message.  If below setting is not set, the default is 10000.  If set to zero, attachment capability will be disabled.
# mailtool.max.num.attachment=

# Temp directory for handling attachment files.  Default is /tmp
# mailtool.upload.directory=/tmp/

# Reveal additional config options on "Options" screen for renaming roles.  Default is false.
# mailtool.show.renaming.role=false

# Roles which should be group-aware in the interface, comma-separated.
mailtool.group.aware.role=Student,access

Mailtool's mail-sending also need the following settings in sakai.properties:

#####Mailtool is looking the following global settings: Three (3)



smtp@org.sakaiproject.email.api.EmailService=acs-smtp.bu.edu

content.upload.max=20

wysiwyg.editor=FCKeditor



#Note: content.upload.max is being overrided in web.xml's "upload.max", default=5 (5 MB).

#If there is no "upload.max" in web.xml, sakai.properties "content.upload.max" will be the max attachment's file size
