Hi @aquiveal any news about that?

[aquiveal]

@federicocalvo Sorry, I've been swamped, so I haven't been able to give it enough attention. I am trying to get it done by this week.

[aquiveal]

@federicocalvo @shariquerik I tested the PR. It works as intended.

• Users cannot access email accounts that haven't been assigned to them.
• Emails send from the selected address.

I built and used this image for testing: https://ghcr.io/aquiveal/fcrm:develop

@shariquerik I don't think this issue was given the importance it deserves.
It has finally been tested.

Hello, I'm asking again here, without this PR, you can't choose the default email account from the settings, right? Does it have to be the general default account?

No you cannot. I actually looked a lot because we use multiple domains in my organisation and we needed a way to use different domains for user account (for SSO) and a different alias for sending out the mail. This isn't possible without the PR on the portal page but it is possible if you use the internal desk.

Ok. Obviously it works if we use the desk view, but I find it hard to understand how anyone could be using it directly. At the very least, you can't have the same sales email as for your notifications, let alone if there is more than one user in the CRM.

@shariquerik Is there any particular reason why this PR does not fall within the scope of important issues?

Considering that practically all configurations are transferred to the new view, and the fundamental utility of email (unless I'm old school and now everything is WhatsApp) is maintained by the desk.
