The resource bundle is made up of locale-specific properties files. It can be found in the alfresco-repository project / JAR in the alfresco/messages folder. In order to change the messages you need to provide a custom resource bundle that overrides the specific key-message pairs for the locales you want to have adapted. You cannot / should not modify any file in the alfresco-repository JAR or the Alfresco WAR for this. The documentation has an article about <A href="http://docs.alfresco.com/5.1/concepts/kb-preset-internationalization.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">overriding the default messages</A>. (Note: The article refers to web script messages but the same approach is valid for any other messages. Just pick a custom bean ID - do not use webscripts.resources - and only include your own message bundles - do not include those examples from the article.)</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 16 Nov 2016 12:42:08 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/edit-default-texts-in-mail/m-p/287967#M241097 afaust 2016-11-16T12:42:08Z
