CollectedMailboxes.xml

By default connector SE gets the list of users – whose mailboxes are supposed to be synchronized from Aurea CRM (see Creating User Settings in Aurea CRM for further details).

Furthermore connector supports additional filtering of the user list via an XML file (CollectedMailboxes.xml). If such a file exists in the installation directory the list of users (mailboxes) is restricted to the users, which are both activated in Aurea CRM via their ID table settings and their e-mail addresses are included in the file.

Note: See the WIKI article How connector(s) determine which users to synchronize for further details.

This mechanism might be quite helpful for testing purposes, because it allows for limiting the number of synchronization users without any need to change the settings in Aurea CRM.

The structure of the CollectedMailboxes.xml is simple, connector SE solely requires is the SMTP address of the mailboxes.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Mailboxes>
 <Mailbox Smtp="fred.tester@exlab02.local" />
 <Mailbox Smtp="john.productowner@exlab02.local" />
</Mailboxes>

Example CollectedMailboxes.xml

Note: connector SE does not provide any means for creating such a CollectedMailboxes.xml file, since EWS does not allow for generating a list of all mailboxes available.

Connector SE "understands" the format of CollectedMailboxes.xml file created with (update.seven) connector for Exchange, too.

This option disables the Automatically update list of mailboxes to synchronize n time(s) a day setting of the connector configuration.
