Email group forwarding
-
Hi folks,
We have a cloudron instance with a lot of users. We use email and we use groups.
We have mailboxes owned by groups.
Lets call an example group "foo", with user members "user1", "user2", and "user3".
There is a mailbox where the owner is the "foo", called foo@example.comWe want email sent to foo@example.com to get forwarded to the personal email accounts of user1, user2, and user3.
Currently, we need to go into the mailbox and manually set up the email forwarding.
If a new user is added to foo, we have to manually go into the mailbox and add them to the forwarding list.
If a user within foo updates the email address associated with their cloudron account, we need to go and manually change their address within the mailbox.It feels like we're doing something wrong, and that there should be a smarter way to link the email addresses in cloudron, the groups in cloudron, and the mailboxes.
Any suggestions?
Otherwise, feature request?

Hello @da5nsy
@da5nsy said in Email group forwarding:
Currently, we need to go into the mailbox and manually set up the email forwarding.
"The mailbox" is the client I assume, so either @sogo, @roundcube, @snappymail or some other client like thunderbird.
If you are using @sogo you could use the sogo-tool to update user preferences like forwarding with automation.
But since you did not share what mail client you are using, this is just one example.
