Hi…
I need answer for the same problem…
Can you kindly reply if you had found the solution……

efestione

Yes, you can create a rule in the "discussions" folder of the site using Alfresco Explorer (or via Share if you have enabled the repository browser)…

hope it helps

Hi…
Thanks for the immediate reply…
I am using alfresco 3.3g…..
As you said I tried to create a rule in the "discussions" folder of the site using Alfresco Explorer as follows:

In explorer:
Company Home –> Sites –> SampleSite (My site name)–> discussions–>
More Actions —> Manage Content Rules –> Create Rule –>
Create Rule Wizard:
Step One - Select Conditions
Select Condition: All iems
Added to list
Step Two - Select Actions
1.    Select Action : Send email
2.      Click to set values and add to list (selected users and added to list.. given a subject for email.. notify template: notify_user_email.ftl)

Summary:
Rule Type:   inbound
Name:   checking
Description:
Apply rule to sub spaces:   Yes
Run rule in background:   No
Disable rule:   No
Conditions:   All Items
Actions:   Send email to 'sowmya'

But still I am not able to send mails to the site members after updating discussions…. why it is so??

sowmya

Already I had invited people by sending emails..so I think my outbound email configurations are correct…
Is my rule creating procedures are correct… or did I had done anything wrong…

I found an error, that is, when I tried to add a discussion in forum, it displays Unable to save
If I delete the rules and add a content in forum, I am not getting such error… I think, I need to do some more email configurations.

Currently I had Configured Outbound Email in alfresco-global.properties:
mail.host= {our host address}
mail.port=25
mail.encoding=UTF-8
mail.from.default= xxx@org.local
mail.username= {username of an email id}
mail.password= {password}
mail.smtp.auth=true
I had done only this….Do i need to do some more configurations? If so kindly reply….

Tomcat error log after adding a post: {only occurs after creating the rules}

Hi…
At last I found solution for the above problem. Thanks to the forum members..
Using explore I had created a group manually and added all the users under it. Setted the group as the mail recipient. Now I can able to have email notification for each updates..

But not possible when setting user as the recipient.
