Hi,I am using Alfresco Community v3.3 and I want to configure Inbound Emails in it.Please do not send me link of Inbound Email configuration of Alfresco wiki because it is not updated one and it has information for the older version of Alfresco.I did all the required changes in the alfresco.global.p

Hello,

You can configure the email server domain to include your company's mail server. You can't use the alfresco.com because it's a different domain. You need to specify your own. In my case, i set up a mail server on my localhost to test my project. I'm using Alfresco 3.2r. I just followed the steps on http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Inbound_SMTP_Email_Server_Configuration and it's working fine.

You can also try this >> http://keytocontent.blogspot.com/2010/05/upload-files-to-alfresco-via-email.html

email.inbound.enabled=true
email.server.enabled=true
email.server.port=25
email.server.domain=companymailserver.com
email.server.allowed.senders=.*

I am also working on comunity edition 3.3g and made all the necessary settings in alfresco-global.properties for the email server (see below) but when i send an email from admin@mydomain.com to maria@mydomain.com in maria's thunderbird imap point inbox folder it appears as an email from admin[alfresco@demo.alfresco.org] to admin[admin@alfresco.org].

Are there any other changes/setting that must be made ??
