Mailfile Owner changeable via web, even if forbidden by policy

Jan Schulz  |     |  Tags:  mailfile lotus domino web  |  Comments (1)
Our user are not allowed to change the "owner" of the mailfile via Mail-Policy.

Unfortunately you can still change the owner via web:

=> You can change it and it is saved.

We discovered this by accident: our mailfile is slightly altered, so that we can put Mail-In Names into it and use it as Teammailbox. The only change is to remove part of the validation formular for the owner field (which checks for hierarchical Names), so that the preferences can be saved (like for a signature change). Unfortunately this also is not so in the web version: you still get the message that the Owner must be hierarchical and so some clever person changed the group mailbox to his own name :-(

As this is anyway changeable by tools (and we have some people who discoverd such tools...) it does not seem to be a security risk, but it seems that this makes using the default template as a team mailbox or generaly in the web slightly more troublesome :-(

This is 8.0.x... Fun...

1 Vinod Seraphin      Permalink Domino 8.5 is the first release where iNotes officially supports policies. So with Domino 8.5, iNotes will automatically honor this policy (with the mail85.ntf template, which uses Forms85.nsf). Prior to 8.5, the iNotes_WA_RestrictOwner=1 NOTES.INI setting may be used to not allow users to edit the owner field from iNotes.
