Customize email alert sent from server admin.

We have deployed a number of MacMini Servers at different client locations and need a way to customize the alert e-mail sent from server admin.
The alert simply states the name of the server but we need to add to it the location or client name as well so we have a way of differentiating between similar named servers at different sites.
No amount of google has helped here.
Anyone know how to customize the text being sent out by server admin to the alert e-mail address?

I'm referring to changes made only in the receiver, and within the Postfix server associated with the automated receiving processing.
Your proposed solution requires changes to the automated system on the receiving computer, and whether you choose to look at the subject line or at the target email address in the arriving mail seems (to me) not a significant difference in the receiving processing.
The automated processing would have to look at the subject line in your case. It would have to look at the arriving address (for itself!) in the
Since I can infer some unfamiliarity with Postfix and SMTP, I'll put this a different way... Configure the sending processing at the monitored site named FOO to send these messages to the email address [email protected], where [email protected] is the email address of your automated receiver. The same set-up over at site BAR is configured to send to [email protected], and (because you've tweaked the receiving Postfix server at EXAMPLE.COM to process the + sign as the same mailbox, it all arrives at the same mailbox. Your automated server then looks at the address used, and sorts the messages accordingly.
This is very similar to your use of the subject line, save it requires no changes to the sender, and what are likely to be equivalent changes to the receiving processing. If you can't change the receiving processing (at all) and you have only the subject line available to you, then you can use this scheme and put some simple custom SMTP message processing "in front of" the automated processing to rejigger the subject line. That's all in-house, and it'll get you to the subject line. Again, all of this without changes to the sending code, and the resulting maintenance headaches. This custom-processing is all in-house and entirely within your shop.
(This same +-based message processing can be used within he Apple Mail client and its rules, for instance; it's a fairly common technique to identify the source of the mail message. Directly, in this case, or potentially who leaked your email address in the case of unsolicited third-party mail. FWIW.)

Customize email Notifications sent from UWL

Hello,
Can the eMail notifications sent from UWL be customized in Portal 7.3 ?
Regards,
Jay.

Hi Jay
I hope you are well and many thanks for using the SAP Discussion Forums.
In relation to your query you mentioned the following:
Can the eMail notifications sent from UWL be customized in Portal 7.3 ?
In UWL lingo, notifications that you would see under the notification tab are specific to: Knowledge Management Collaboration Recent Notifications. Notifications through the Universal Worklist deal with Knowledge Management and Collaboration. If you are looking to integrate SAP Office within the Universal Worklist please refer to note 945484 How to receive office notifications in the universal
worklist.
Now in terms of actually customizing the emails themselves. From my research and understanding if
you are using the default mail notification this is not customizable. You can however put a notification task in the flow(just before the human task), if you want to customize the notification content. This would be done through the task ID for the workitems (you can find this through the enalbement of the support information).
Kindly update me as per your findings.
Kind Regards & All The Best

My mother used to be the bill payer on my iTunes account so now every time I send an email from my iCloud account it sent with her name, how can I change the settings so emails are sent from myself?

My mother used to be the bill payer on my iTunes account so now every time I send an email from my iCloud account it sent with her name, how can I change the settings so emails are sent from myself?
I've changed the bill payer to myself but it stills says on emails that I sent that its from my mother.

In order for the "From" field to show you options on the "from" addresses available, you must set them up in the Preferences > Accounts first.
I can't show you a screen shot of the from field because I currently only have one account, so the from address used is the default. However, when I had more than one, then options will show up in your compose/reply window.
You'd need to add an account here:

Why i couldn't open email that sent from Outlook?

                 Please help me for this matter, i had bought my BB Curve 8520 for just only 5 days and use latest firmware. I have setup 2 emails 1.) hotmail 2.) Outlook (Official mail) i found this issue after i had setup my office email for a few days.
                Issue is when i open email that sent from Outlook (Official mail) that contained file .png or attached with file .png by using HTML my bb couldn't open it, it will stuck but i can use any function but just the email that didn't open.
                I ha contacted with my Local support, they inform me to do the hard reset, after i had hard reset it working fine with same email that couldn't open previously. After one day had past it has the same issue again.
Please help me to fixed this issue, thank you in advance.
P.S. I had never install any unauthorized program.

Photoshop doesn't do anything special or different when a file is sent from an attachment. However, when you send an attachment from Outlook to Photoshop, that file is actually downloaded to your computer in a Temp folder before it is sent to Photoshop. Often times the permissions on this folder can be such that it prevents access. Other than that, all Outlook does is simply drop the file onto the Photoshop app file. The only thing that would involve Photoshop directly is if there are some damaged files involved with its connection to the rest of the system. If this is the case a reinstall would fix it. Otherwise, check the permissions on the Outlook temp folder (or at least the JPEG file it is trying to save).

Sound like a pfishing email rather than your account being hacked. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4933.

After I updated Firefox, several emails were sent from my email addresses without my permission. What happened?

After being prompted to and finishing an upgrade with Firefox, several emails were sent from my email accounts without my permission. One was an email that I had sent to a business more than a year ago. This is very embarrassing. They were sent using the Firefox browser. What happened? Thank you for your response.

Firefox is not capable of sending emails. An extension, however, could. If you have any extensions that allow you to send emails, you should write a review on their [http://example.com page].

Setting the account your email is sent from

I have followed the instructions for Setting the account your email is sent from, but it is not working.
Email is not being sent from the account I have at the top of my list of accounts in my mail preferences.
How do I fix this problem?
IMAC G3 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Copied from Mail Help:
If you have set up multiple accounts in Mail, when you create a new message, the account the message is sent from is the one associated with the currently selected mailbox. If the current mailbox is listed in the On My Mac section of the mailbox list and is not associated with any particular account, then your message is sent from the first account listed in the Accounts pane of Mail Preferences.
When you reply to a message, the From address is selected in the following order:
The To and Cc fields are compared to email addresses you have set up in Mail Preferences. Mail uses the first address it finds as the reply address.
If the message is in an account mailbox, Mail uses the email address for the account the mailbox belongs to.
If all else fails, Mail uses the email address for the first account listed in the Accounts pane of Mail Preferences.
Tiger Mail includes a default account selection for "send new mail from" regardless which mailbox is currently selected when selecting New to compose a new message.

How can I turn off email alerts in Lion server?

I have a 2011 Mini Server. I don't want to run any of the server software and followed the instructions in the Apple article "How to disable Lion Server". The problem I'm having is that I keep getting email alerts, mostly the same one saying "The host name of server.local has changed to server.local. Some services may not work correctly until they have been updated to use the new configuration." Can anyone help me really shut down Lion server?

No worries. Typically you can rename a machine by just changing the name System Preferences -> Sharing. But there is also a command line option to adjust the name, and if you don't use the command line option, the server freaks out and will alert you about the change forever. ie - for servers, you need to use the command I describe below.
The command is called changeip and can be run from command line in Terminal.app. It is for manually chaning the ip address and or name of a machine. It basically has 4 parameters: old ip address, new ip address, old machine name, new machine name.
Basically the command looks like this:
sudo changeip OLDIPADDRESS NEWIPADDRESS OLDNAME NEWNAME
If any value is being kept the same, just repeat the identical information as both the old and new value.
Example 1: Changing the IP address and host name. This would update the machine's ip address to be 192.168.1.2 and its name would be update to my_new_name.
sudo changeip 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2 my_old_name my_new_name
Example 2: Keeping the IP address the same but updating the name. This would update the machine's name to my_new_name but would keep the same ip address.
sudo changeip 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.1 my_old_name my_new_name
Most likely you're just wanting to update the name, in which case you should follow the second example. If you run this, be sure to reboot the machine afterwards and test to make sure that any enabled services are running properly.

Purchase order emails are sent from SAP without attachment.

In SAP Business One, the user goes to Purchase order > clicks on the email icon >"Would you like to attach an edited report to the email?' > Yes > Send > Email is sent to the vendor.
If the connection to the B1SHR(mapped to network drive under general settings) was temporarily lost for a minute, the attachment is not saved.
Unfortunately, SAP allows you to proceed to send the email and does not alert you to the fact that the attachment was not saved.
Is there any setting in SAPB1 to get an error message when this occurs? Has anyone else come across this problem before?

Maeve,
There is no setting in Business One to activate an error on this type of event.
I have run across a similar issue before.
Unfortunately if connectivity to the shared folder is lost during the saving process, B1 will not be able to throw an error due to the fact that as far as the application is concerned it has completed the task successfully.
If your users are experiencing this type of connection loss on a fairly regular basis, it may be something that needs to be addressed by the network administrator, IT dept., or Internet service provider(if they are connecting separately from the local network).
Otherwise, users would need to manually verify that the attachment was saved prior to sending the email.
I hope this has helped.
Kind regards,
Lucas

HT2480 email not deleting from server when deleted from ipad

messages are not being deleted from server when deleted from ipad

Hello,
You need to tell us what the email service is. BES? BIS -- and, if so, what email provider? If BES, then see your BES admins. If BIS, then expect it to function in accordance with this KB.
Otherwise, you can try the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB):
1) Register HRT
Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > (it does not matter which line is current) > Register Now
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should try deleting and re-adding your BIS conduits for the affected email accounts.
Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!
If anyone has been helpful to you, please show your appreciation by clicking the button inside of their post. Please click here and read, along with the threads to which it links, for helpful information to guide you as you proceed. I always recommend that you treat your BlackBerry like any other computing device, including using a regular backup schedule...click here for an article with instructions.

Customizing the email message sent from BPF after step completion

Is it possible to customize the email message sent by BPF after a step completion.I would like to customize the email sent by the SAP BPC once a BPF step has been completed. Is it possible to add some dynamic parameters related to the BPF as part of the email message, for example : Cost Centre, Account, Finance or any dimension related to the BPF
Currently it sends out a message as given below
[Approve Data] step of [Test BPF 1] has been completed by dom\bpfuser
Where
[Test BPF 1] => Name of the BPF
[Approve Data] => A Step in the BPF
dom\bpfuser => Domain\ User name
Note :In the APPSET Parameter BPFSTEP_COMPLETE_MSG we tried to add a custom message but it seems to add to display along with the existing message and treats the variables as plain text.

I used the Note 2 for over 6 months before it started happening. About the same time, my husband's iPhone started sending text to email messages at attachments to I blamed it on his phone. I went into his settings and couldn't find any reason and I checked a multitude of websites and saw MANY people having the same issue with no resolution. I also tried deleting all text history and contact info from both of our phones but it continued to happen until I reset my phone to factory defaults.
2 weeks ago I purchased the Note 3 and text messages from my daughter started coming as [email protected] Again, I tried purging all contact information and text message history from both phones with no success. I waited until my daughter upgraded to a Galaxy S4 Mini. I reset my phone to factory at the same time I was setting her phone up and that has fixed the problem again.
My main concern now is that this bug will again randomly rear it's ugly head and I'll again have to reset my phone to factory, losing all my settings and taking days to customize it the way I want it again.
Thank you for ANY help you can give.

Why aren't my iphone emails being sent from my default email address. Is anyone else having this problem?

I have my iphone email default setting to my primary email address however when I send or respond to emails they are sent from my secondary email address even if I de-activate the secondary email address. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to correct this?

Are you sending from All Inboxes, or the inbox for the account the message was received in? I cannot duplicate your problem with either approach; my mail is always sent with the FROM address of the account that a Reply came to, or, for a new message, the inbox that was open at the time. It doesn't matter which SMTP server I use.
When composing a new message or a reply tap once on the BCC/FROM field; you can then tap on the From address and choose any of your email addresses for the FROM field. Does this let you change it?
