Creating Groove Server Manager e-mail templates
The domain E-mail tab lets server and domain administrators create templates for the e-mail that the Groove Server Manager sends to SharePoint Workspace users so that they can configure their accounts or recover a backed up account file. You also have the option of saving this e-mail as a default template.
To create a Groove Server Manager e-mail template
Log on to the Groove Server Manager administrative Web site and select your management domain in the navigation pane.
Click the E-mail tab for the domain. The domain E-mail page appears with a list of previously defined e-mail templates.
Select Add E-mail in the toolbar. The Add E-mail window appears.
Enter the requested information in the fields as shown in the following table, and then click OK. Only the Save E-mail As field is required to save this e-mail; all fields are required to send:
Create Account Configuration Code E-mail Fields
Values
E-mail Type
Select one of the following e-mail types from the drop-down menu:
Account Configuration E-mail - E-mail sent to SharePoint Workspace users to accompany Groove account configuration codes.
Account Restoration E-mail - E-mail sent to SharePoint Workspace users to accompany a file that contains backed up account information needed to restore the user account.
Save E-mail as
Required Field. Enter the name of the e-mail message that you want to create. You can then use this e-mail when you want to send a SharePoint Workspace user a managed identity or account backup file.
Note
When you enter a name in this field to save an edited e-mail, clicking OK renames the edited e-mail to the new name, instead of creating a copy and saving it under the new name.
E-mail From
Enter your e-mail address if you want.
E-mail Subject
Enter the subject of the e-mail, such as Account Configuration.
E-mail Body
Enter the desired text explaining that you are sending an account configuration code that will supply a new SharePoint Workspace identity that enables access to the enterprise SharePoint Workspace environment.
When this message goes out as default e-mail, the Groove Server Manager automatically includes the account configuration code, Groove Server Manager name, and new identity name.
Make this e-mail the default for this activity
Select this option to make this e-mail message the default e-mail for distributing account configuration codes or account backup files. This message will replace the current default e-mail.
Leaving this check box unchecked retains the current default e-mail.
