Email files to upload?

[Paul Schmutzler]

I noticed that there's a new feature in RS that allows you to submit files via email. Where can I find documentation on how to set this up and utilize it?

[Tom Gleason]

enable the checkmail plugin, and further instructions are in its >Options (setup) page.

Hi Tom

Do you have enter all 'allowed extensions' in System Setup for each resource type, so that the files are correctly assigned to the correct type?  What happens to files that do not have an extension (or mime type)?

[Tom Gleason]

No. In checkmail setup, it pulls data from 'allowed extensions' as a convenient prepopulation only, so that without extra work, resources are more likely to be typed correctly for installations which have already thought about which extensions should be related to which types.

Otherwise the checkmail extension mappings have nothing to do with allowed extensions.

Have been trying to get this going in our installation - is this successfully working for anyone else?

We got as far as creating a new resource, but there's no preview.

Just to mention that Google Mail renders the plugin unusable in latest revision.

$file['filename'] has to be setted to $part->dparameters[1] instead of $part->dparameters[0]. The later refers to the CREATION_DATE, rendering the plugin unusable.

Hi, I have submitted a fix which I hope should solve this issue with Gmail in r5100. 

Please let me know if you have issues with this as we are planning a new release of ResourceSpace imminently.

Thanks,

Neil

Hello

I am trying to get the checkmail plugin to work but I keep getting a strange error.

It does check the account and can log in fine, even identify the user properly but then it says the user is not in the list while looking at the GUI the user is in the list. At that point it just marks the message down and no import occurs.

I have it setup so check mail is allowed for every user group. 

Any help will be much appreciated.
