10.5.3: Email sub-groups not working

Hi Everyone,
I upgraded my server to 10.5.3 the other day, and I have discovered a problem. In the workgroup manager I have groups that "mailing list" feature enabled. In these groups I have members that are both individual users, and also other groups. Ever since I upgraded to 10.5.3 members of the subgroups don't receive any emails when messages are sent to the parents list.
For example, I have a group called "ParentGroup" which has the members of "user1", "user2", and "ChildGroup". ChildGroup has members of "User3" and "user4". If I send an email to "ParentGroup", only users 1&2 get an email, and NOT 1,2,3&4 like it should be.
If I check my /etc/aliases file and look in the automatically generated section, indeed I see an entry like:
parentgroup: user1, user2
I can say with certainty that this issue stems from the upgrade to 10.5.3 and not a matter of just not waiting long enough for the script to update /etc/aliases.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Does anyone know what updates /etc/aliases? Is it a cron job, or a daemon that is always running?

Yes we are having exactly the same problem, and it was triggered by the upgrade to 10.5.3
I hope Apple proposes a fix to this soon. We have a large number of nested groups set up. The symptom is just as you described. Emails being sent to a group "mailing list" are only making it to users that are direct members of that group, not the inherited members from nested groups.
Quite frustrating.

  • Email sub accounts not working

    I use Windows Live Mail and have for years.  My main account works, but my sub accounts stopped working.  I get a pop up for my password.  It doesn't work and keeps popping up until I cancel and then I get an error that the email can't send or receive because the wrong password was entered.  This is the same password I've always used in the past.

    Sorry you are having difficulty, an agent with access to your account will reach out to you directly by email, private message in the Forums and/or the billing telephone number on your Verizon account for more information to help you resolve your issue.Please remember to check your spam/junk folder if you do not hear from an agent.

  • Send Email to group not working

    Using MOSS 2007 SP1, I am creating a SPD workflow and one of the actions is a Email action.
    If I have it send the e-mail to my email address, it works.
    I created an Active Directory security group and put myself in the group.
    If I have it send the email to the Active Directory group, which appears in the lookup list for the To: field, I do not get the e-mail.  There are no errors in the logs.
    I created a Sharepoint Group and put myself in the group.
    if I have it send the email to the Sharepoint Group, which appears in the lookup list for the To: field, I do not get the e-mail.  There are no errors in the logs.
    Why wouldn't the e-mails to the groups work?  Both of those methods should work, shouldn't they?

     
    Hello,
               If you are integrating your MOSS with Exchange server 2007 to send out-going email then please try the following steps to fix your problem:
    1.       Go to Exchange Management Console -> Recipient Configuration -> Distribution group.
    2.       Right-click on the problem group and choose properties.
    3.       On the Mail Flow Settings tab, double click on Message Delivery Restrictions.
    4.       Uncheck the check box "Require that all senders are authenticated".
             Have a try and see the effect.
             Hope it can help you,

  • TS3276 My o2 email account does not work when sending from my MAC it will accept incoming mail but not send it gives me a message that  o2 account (offline) my mac I have no problem with my iPhone  or mac laptop. any suggestions please.

    My o2 email account does not work when sending from my MAC it will accept incoming mail but not send it gives me a message that  o2 account (offline) my mac I have no problem with my iPhone  or mac laptop. any suggestions please.

    Sorry for the delay...
    I did what you've told me, new account and manually copied my files from Time Machine. I had lots of permissions problems, but at the end, almost everything is in order... It seems it had to be with some of the Apple Preferences, but I can't be sure, as most of them were dumped to the trash can.
    I still don't have my Mail Rules back, unfortunately, although I did goggled some. It is a pity, as I had around 30 or 40 of them, getting my mail in order to each of its mailboxes, but it is a small price as the rest doesn't show the before syntoms.
    Thanks for the help, anyway!!

  • Multiple recipient email addresses is not working  for xsl & PDF Attachment

    multiple recipient email addresses is not working properly when
    to list has some external email address and sending xls and PDF file as an attachment.
    Test Scenario:
    (A) Create mail target activity
    1)To email : use the multiple email id with some external domain (ex.
    [email protected] ,[email protected], [email protected])
    2)File attachment with .xls file and this file is sending to mail target as an inputstream(at runtime)
    3)Use all other valid parameter in activity.
    (B) Create a process flow File source to mail target
    Execute the process flow.
    Actual Result: Mail is received by every email account. Only external email account get correct file but other email account(as ([email protected])) attachment files
    displaying message
    �abc.xls� can not be accessed. The file may be read-only, Or you may be
    trying to access a read only location. Or, the server the document is stored on
    may not be responding.�
    When i trying to open xls and PDF file
    Expected Result:
    All type of file attachments should be supported with all valid email address
    (servers).
    Pls help me about this senario:
    What is problem in this case:
    I am sending code
    Session session =getSession(host,port,secure);
    session.setDebug(this._debug);
                   Transport trans = connect(host,port,session,userID,password);
                   Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
                   InternetAddress[] iAddr = null;
                   message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(fromName));
                   iAddr = InternetAddress.parse(toUserName, true);
                   message.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, iAddr);
                   message.setSubject(subject);
                   //BodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
                   Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
                   MimeBodyPart messageBodyPart=null;
    if(dataLocation!=null && dataLocation.equalsIgnoreCase("ATTACHMENT")){
                        String tmpName=fileName;
                        if( inputstream != null)
                                  tmpName = makeAttachment(fileName,inputstream);
                        messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
                        DataSource source = new FileDataSource(tmpName);
                        messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source));
                        fileName = fileName.replace('\\', '/');
                        fileName = fileName.substring(fileName.lastIndexOf('/') + 1,
                                  fileName.length());
                        messageBodyPart.setFileName(fileName);
                        multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);

    First, when sending your message, the filename should be a simple
    filename, not containing any directory names.
    It sounds like your mail server might be doing some special
    processing of attachments, perhaps to prevent viruses.

  • Response Groups not working

    Hi there
    My environment is a single Lync 2013 Front End Server installed on Server 2012.
    It works since a year and now we want to use some response groups. I created 2 of them and everything seems fine but i cant call these groups. Not from internal and also not from external.
    The clients shows an 500 internal server error with ID 26017.
    So i traced the whole thing on the Front End Server. It seems the Response Group Service cant work with the local SQL Server. I see three error messages.
    1. TL_ERROR(TF_COMPONENT) [2]0B90.37A8::07/23/2014-06:38:39.119.000002fb (RgsClientsLib,MatchMakingLocator.GetActiveInstanceFromDB:683.idx(479))
    (0000000000150BA8)No instance registered as the active instance!
    2. TL_ERROR(TF_COMPONENT) [1]1E08.2910::07/23/2014-06:38:42.462.00000a34 (RgsHostingFramework,CallControlManager.HandleAudioVideoCall:2049.idx(619))
    (000000000362D054)Call is declined because Call Control is not started.
    3. TL_WARN(TF_COMPONENT) [1]0B90.0B7C::07/23/2014-06:38:48.053.00000f2d (RgsClientsLib,MatchMakingLocator.GetActiveMatchMakingInstance:683.idx(301))
    (0000000000150BA8)There is currently no active MatchMaking instance in the pool.
    The Lync Server Event Log shows this error when the Response Group Service starts:
    LS Response Group Service ID 31067
    Lync Server 2013, Response Group Service Match Making could not find the Contact object used for subscribing to agents' presence.
    Cause: The application has not been properly activated or the Contact object was deleted.
    Resolution:
    Deactivate and then activate the application for this pool.
    Is there a way to reinstall / reconfigure the whole response group service incl. the active directory objects?
    I hope somebody could help
    Regards
    Andreas

  • OS10 Hub - Conversation Display - Grouping emails using title not working

    Hello,
    One great feature of former blackberry and Outlook is the ability of sorting email together if they are relating the same discussion.
    Their is an option for this in my Z10, but it doesn't work well at all. I had a discussion with someone using emails and we exchanged pictures and this kind of thing. The hub groups sometimes two messages together but that's it. There is no reliability or repeatability. And when I deactivate the function it is even worse as the few which were grouped together starts to be as unique entry (which is the expected behaviour under such settings).
    Is the "Conversation" Display style working well on your handset ? This is pretty basic thing and my old BB 9800 used to do it properlly...
    Thanks for your feedback.

    I have the same problem as you.. 
    It would be great to imporve this . For now grouping option is not working.

  • Alert to group not working on Sharepoint 2010!

    Hello,
    We have a SharePoint 2010 Server which on the front page we have a news list. We have migrated to 365 and since then the alerts are not working properly. We have a local SMTP server that we use to rely to 365 since SharePoint does not support TLS by itself.
    The SMTP server is working because we can set up alerts on individuals and the emails are coming. The issue is with the group. I have tried several groups but still the same issue. On some groups we receive the initial email about the creation of the alert,
    but no mails after that. I have checked also the Immediate Alert service and is successful. I have checked in the  mail flow on 365 and I can see the initial creation of the alert mail sent to all in the group, but the alerts on changing anything on the
    list does not come into 365, so it must be a SharePoint issue which I can`t determine since the immediate alert service is running...
    Can you please provide a feasible solution for this issue?
    Thank you very much.
    DOVC
    Best Regards, Valentin Doru System Administrator

    Hi Valentin,
    please also open a thread at o365 community, because seems this issue happened at o365.
    to try, perhaps you can re-add the group also, because it may refresh the properties from the AD group to o365.
    and you may check these workaround for testing:
    Option 1: Use a Redirection User
    created a user in Office 365. This user is licensed to use SharePoint Online and Exchange Online.
    In Exchange Online, create Distribution Groups, which are standard Distribution Group that allows however in Delivery Management also Senders outside of organization, as the SharePoint Sender is not part of the Exchange Org.
    In Exchange Online for the User Exchange Forwarder, created Inbox Rules. The rule is checking the Subject for a keyword and as action redirect the E-Mail to the DG and deletes it right away.
    repeat this for other DGs as well.
    In SharePoint Online grant the user Exchange Forwarder access to the Site to access the List
    Now there are two important steps:
    1)      The Alert Title needs to include the token we look for in the Exchange rule
    2)      The “Send Alerts To” needs to be our “Exchange Forwarder”
    When everything is set up an Alert will be received by Exchange Forwarder and then forwarded to the DG.
    Option 2: Use a custom Workflow with the Send E-Mail To Activity
    In Exchange Online creat a Distribution Groups, which are standard Distribution Group that allows however in Delivery Management also Senders outside of my organization, as the SharePoint Sender is not part of the Exchange Org.
    Using SharePoint Designer create a custom Workflow like the one below. In the Send E-Mail activity I specified the external SMTP Address of the DG as To-Address.
    When the Workflow is executed an E-Mail is sent directly to the DG:
    Background:
    When sending an Alert, SharePoint is doing a Security Trimming. So SharePoint wants to be sure the recipient of the Alert has permissions to see the List Content the Alert is about. Therefore we cannot enter an SMTP-Address for an Alert but need to specify
    a Security Principal known to SharePoint.
    In a Workflow we don’t need to do this kind of Security Trimming. The creator / designer of the Workflow need to take care whom to send what information.
    Side note: Alerts and Workflow Send E-Mail To Activities are the only possibilities in SharePoint Online to send E-Mails. Custom solutions (Sandboxed Solutions) will not work.

  • Sub-Reports not working.

    Hello,
    I am using crystal reports xi-r2 I am having trouble getting an on-demand sub-report to work. After much trouble I am able to get the sub-report to work in the designer but as soon as I publish the report and access it from the CRS. It stops working. I can not get the sub-report to come up. Or it opens another window like it is going to show the sub-report but I get the original report again.
    Thanks for your help.
    Jeff

    Hi Jeff,
    Can you provide a more detailed description of how the report is created?
    - Do you have groups in the report?
    - Which section is the subreport sitting in?
    - Is the subreport linked to the main report?
    - When you refer to On-Demand subreport,  do you mean you've enabled the check box for 'on-demand subreport'  or did you enter an HTTP url.  Please elaborate how you created the subreport.
    - As a test,  if you do not create an on-demand subreport and allow the subreport to display,  does it show the correct data?
    Regards,
    Wallie

  • Block External email to DG not working

    Hi,
    I have enabled "Require that all Sender are authenticated" for a DG group to restrict external email coming to this address but it is not working.
    I have tested this with different DG and have same issue.
    Also when I restrict the DG to accept email from specified users in our domain it works fine internalyy and block it for usrs which are not in the list but still accept email from external domain.
    Does this have anything to do with "Receiver connectors"?

    Hi Vala,
    Thank you for your question.
    Did you create a new distribution group to check if the issue persist?
    Did this distribution group migrate from Exchange 2007 or former?
    In previous versions of Exchange, by default, no recipients were configured to require all senders to be authenticated. Therefore, any distribution groups that we migrate from a previous version of Exchange won't have this restriction configured.
    We could refer to the following link:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124405%28v=exchg.141%29.aspx
    Please tell us what is your transport rule? Including detail steps:
    If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know. 
    Best Regard,

  • ICloud Contact Groups Not Working on iPad

    I made a contact list on iCloud.com via my Mac Book (OS X Yosemite).  The groups I created there do not work with iPad Air 2 mail. They show up on the iPad, but I cannot send emails to my groups.  What do I need to do to make groups work?

    Maybe the backup is corrupted.
    Turn off iCloud backup and try deleting the iCloud backup for the iPad.
    iCloud: Remove an iOS device backup from iCloud - Support - Apple
    Then turn it back on and try to backup.
    You can also try removing your iCloud account from the device and then re-add it.
    Note: This will cause you to lose everything but the last 30 days of photos in your My Photo Stream so take precautions.

    I have seral email accounts on my Mac. One does not work on the Mac but works on my iPad and iPhone. The account information was added on the Mac. I keeps rejecting my password.

    You don't input the information in manually for iCloud mail. It is automatically set up for you when you sign into iCloud via System Preferences and choose the Mail checkbox. Sign out of iCloud or deselect Mail in iCloud preferences. Open Mail's preferences and choose accounts tab. If iCloud account still exists in the list, delete it. Sign back into iCloud or check the box for mail. The account will be auto created for you.
