Bug 18397: Add message delivery details to the notices tab
This patch adds further delivery details to the notices tab in patron
details in the staff client.
Once a message is sent, we display the 'from:', 'to:' and 'cc:'
addresses in the 'Delivery note' column when they exist.
Test plan
1. Enable KTD to send email [1] (without email configured the
delivery note displayed "Unhandled email failure, check the logs for
further details").
2. Add email addresses to two patrons and to KohaAdminEmailAddress,
and run misc/cronjobs/process_message_queue.pl after generating
notices.
3. For the two patrons with email addresses, make one a guarantor.
4. Sent Welcome messages (Patron account > More > Send welcome email) -
nothing in delivery note column.
5. Checkout out an item to the guarantee (item checkout email enabled) -
nothing in delivery note column.
6. Send the notices by running misc/cronjobs/process_message_queue.pl
again.
7. Now the 'Delivery note' columns should contain from:, to: and cc:
address details.
[1] Option 1 - smpt-sink (aka the sandboxes way)
- Install the postfix package inside ktd (sudo apt install postfix)
When asked in the wizard, I named mine 'local'
- Start smpt-sink with
`nohup smtp-sink -u root -D mail 127.0.0.1:25 100 </dev/null >/dev/null 2>&1 &`
Option 2 - To test sending emails using a Google account:
- Set up an App password for your Google Account
- Edit /etc/koha/sites/kohadev/koha-conf.xml file and add this
configuration near the end (where <user_name> = your Google email
address; <password> = your APP password, not your Google account
password):
