Univention/Kopano shared mailboxes
-
Hello,
we are about to setup our first test environment and also a production install.
We have about 15 user accounts and also need some shared mailboxes. As we have read so far for shared mailboxes you just create a normal user and set it to inactive (In Univention Kopano non active account). All works fine so far but how to assign this shared mailboxes to users so they appear in Kopano Webapp?
I know you can add this shared mailboxes manually in your account, but some users (office department) cant do this on their own. Also when we plan a bigger install you cannot map this shared accounts manually as this would be to much time consuming.
So how to handle this problem right? In Exchange when you assign a user to another mailbox this new account appears automatic in the Outlook application of the user, we want this also for Kopano.
Thanks & best regards

Hi @TheInvisible,
there is no built-in functionality to open stores after they have been shared automatically. However which stores and folders have been opened is stored in the users settings (within his/her store) and this data can be manipulated. Scripts for this have already been mentioned here on the forum.

Something along the lines of https://forum.kopano.io/topic/2294/company-categories-for-all-users/2

Okay thanks.
I see there are Python bindings to Kopano where you can read the user configs and modify the values. The required paths for me are in “contexts -> hierarchy -> shared_stores” where the shared stores are listed.
Thanks & best regards
