I would like to setup file server resource manager to send e-mail notifications to people who have exceeded their threshold. The way Microsoft says to do this is:
To configure e-mail notifications, set the following options on the E-mail Message tab:
• Select the Send e-mail to the following administrators check box, and enter the names of the administrative accounts that will receive notifications. Use the format account@domain; use semicolons to separate multiple accounts.
• To contact the person who saved the file that exceeded the quota threshold, select the Send e-mail to the user who exceeded the threshold check box.
• Optionally, edit the default subject line and message body that are provided.
The text that is in brackets inserts variable information about the quota event that caused the notification. For example, the [Source Io Owner] variable inserts the user name of the user or application that wrote the file to disk. Use the Insert Variable button to insert additional variables in the text.
(You can use the Additional E-mail Headers button to configure additional headers, including “From,” “Cc,” “Blind Cc,” and “Reply-To.”)
My question... Who is the e-mail going to for the person who exceeded their threshold? Where is it pulling the e-mail from? I did as the said, but of course, not recieving any e-mails.
If I can't get this to work I have another of doing it by doing this:
Right clicking the person's quota -> edit quota properties -> Selecting the threshold -> Select edit -> go to the command prompt, and then from there I have a script I made that will run, sending an e-mail notification to the person.
Of course that way is much more cumbersome, becuase it would involve copying, pasting, and editing a bunch of javascripts that send out e-mail notifications.
Any help would be appreciated.
