Email for notification of users of changed content

Dear all,

I have created a content rule on one of my sites which automatically sends users of the site an email when new content is added or any content is changed. This works perfectly well but unfortunately the mail comes from 'alfresco@alfresco.org' which most users ignore since they don't expect mail from such a domain.

Where do i change this email address to something else? I have tried to go through the scripts but  I don't seem to get any headway. Any help is appreciated.

Regards,

There are two files where this can be changed, and I always forget which one is the "correct" one.
Have a look at your web-client-config-custom.xml, and add :


   <config>
      <client>
      
         <!– the from address to use when sending emails from the client –>
         <from-email-address>AAAA@AAAAAA.COM</from-email-address>

      </client>
   </config>

And, in the custom-repository.properties :
mail.from.default=AAAA@AAAAAA.COM
