How to configure Email Server globally for users

ℹ️ Support
1

The Email Server setting under Admin→Basic Settings→Email server allows the configuration of the Email Server for the next-cloud System.

I’m looking for an option to configure the options globally for users. The user then just supplies their password. The reason for this is in particular an organisation will have an centralised email server.

The Auto setting for the add email account wizard is not that accurate and often requires manual intervention.

I see 2 ways

  1. An option similar to the System email server settings which also allows the setting of the SMTP and IMAP settings

  2. I have an LDAP server which contains the configured email server for the user within the schema. When logging in a default email account is created based on the returned values in the user object file.

Many Thanks

Are you referring to one of the webmail clients that integrate with Nextcloud? If so, which one? There are several.

Hi,

I’m referring to the standard Mail app when you install nextcloud Hub ( Install all applications) its part of the groupware bundle , calendar, contacts, mail.

When a user logs in and clicks the mail icon on the top bar , a wizard is invoked to ask the user to add an email account. I would like to enable a default organisational email for the user
