Hi @cbnidk,

It’s not possible to exclude entries from the everyone group.

The alternative would be to hide the everyone group and define your own “all” group.

to hide the everyone group

Hi

How can I hide the everyone group?, it is a ok solution for me

I have found the solutiom on google

server.cfg
hide_everyone = yes
If this option is set to ‘yes’, the internal group Everyone (which always contains all users) will be hidden from the Global Addressbook. Thus, users will not be able to send e-mail to this group anymore, and also will not be able to set access rights on folders for this group. Administrators will still be able to see and use the group.
Default: no

Thank you for your quick answer

hi

The everyone group is only gone in webapp it is not gone in outlook
and I have make a sync of Global Addressbook to outlook
/usr/share/z-push/tools/gab-sync# ./gab-sync.php -a sync
but in outlook the everyone group is still there
if I make a sync I can see 17 itens is sync but it only have to be 16, so the sync don’t take away the everyone group

in outlook I use KOE to see Global Addressbook
how can I fix this?

@cbnidk I would not exclude the possibility that the hide everyone option is not honoured by the gabsync script.

Hi

The problem is that adress book don’t get hidden if I set it to be hidden in server.cfg
it is only my own group that I can get hidden adress book in by ldap
I think this is a bug
it gets hidden i webapp but not in outlook
my own group teknik_group is hidden in webapp and outlook this is working

root@kopano:/# kopano-cli --group everyone
Name: everyone
Email address:
Address Book: visible
Send-as:
Users (14):

User Full Name Homeserver
root@kopano:/# kopano-cli --group teknik_group
Name: teknik_group
Email address:
Address Book: hidden
Send-as:
Users (3):
User Full Name Homeserver

Hi @cbnidk,

yes there seems to be indeed a mixup with the output of kopano-cli. Everyone is a “special” group and its probably looking up the visibility status of it in a different value. I have created https://jira.kopano.io/browse/KC-1494 to look into this at a later point.

But since the group is not shown in WebApp the setting itself continues to work.
