If I 'import' the e-mail of user X through this 'all members of group xxx' mechanism and I later change user X's e-mail address through the User page, unless we maintain an association between the e-mail in the alarms page and the owning user then the e-mails will become out-of-sync and the admin will have to change it in two places. Were you expecting sipXconfig to keep the necessary association information to ensure that e-mals remain in sync? The flip side of this scenario also exists. If the 'imported' e-mails in the Alarms page are not read-only, how would we handle the admin modifying an e-mail in the Alarms page? Do you let it diverge from the User's configured e-mail address or do you also apply the change to the User? _______________________________________________ sipx-dev mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-dev Unsubscribe: http://list.sipfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/sipx-dev sipXecs IP PBX -- http://www.sipfoundry.org/
