Alexander Schwartz commented on MCHANGES-79:
--------------------------------------------
I am agree, the approach suggest by Dennis has several advantages.
> Allow for overriding the announcement email from address

> Key: MCHANGES-79
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHANGES-79
> Project: Maven 2.x Changes Plugin
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: announcement
> Reporter: Alexander Schwartz
>
> Currently the goal {{changes:announcement-mail}} uses the email address of
> the first developer found in the pom as the from address of the announcement
> email. Very often a project is released by a developer that is not the first
> on in the list of developers in the pom -- which results is an announcement
> email with awron, confusing from address. (Of course one can change the list
> of developers for each release, or add a dummy developer "buildmaster" as the
> first one in the developer list, but this is not my preferred option).
> The maven1 announcement plugin has a parameter {{from}} which allows to
> specify a different from address.
> I suggest to add an optional parameter {{fromAdress}} to the goal
> {{changes:announcement-mail}} of the {{maven-changes-plugin}} such that one
> can specify the sender as follows:
> {noformat}
> <project>
> ...
> <build>
> <plugins>
> <plugin>
> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
> <artifactId>maven-changes-plugin</artifactId>
> <configuration>
> <fromAddress>
> [EMAIL PROTECTED]
> </fromAddress>
> </configuration>
> </plugin>
> </plugins>
> </build>
> ...
> </project>
> {noformat}
> If the paremter {{fromAdress}} is given its content is taken as the the
> sender address of the announcement mail. If the option is not specified, the
> fallback is the email address of the first developer in the POM.
