Seeing if a User Has Received a Welcome Notification
This example shows how to determine if a has received a welcome notification.
See also, Resending the Welcome Notification for additional information.
Note: This example uses the Administration Console batch command syntax.
Find the Welcome Notification Setting
1. Using the displayuser command, determine if a user qualifies for a welcome notification. The user must not be active and the user has not yet been welcomed.The active field indicates whether the user has ever logged into the Message Center. If the user is active, a welcome notification is not sent.
The welcome_count field indicates if a welcome message has been sent.
2. Using the displayorg command, determine if the org’s welcome message function is enabled.If the welcome_on field is enabled for this user’s org, then the next time the system runs the process (overnight), it looks for users in that org that meet both conditions, and for any that it finds, it sends the notification.
Resending the Welcome Notification
The Welcome notification can not be resent. Once the notification has been sent, the Welcomed flag is set to True and can not be reset. There are a few options for working around this:
![]()
Check whether user has ever logged into the Message Center and had messages quarantined.See Seeing if a User Has Received a Welcome Notification for more information.
Note: This example uses the Administration Console batch command syntax.
Options Once a Welcome Notification is Sent
The user will receive the My First Spam notification when the first junk email message is quarantined. This notification is similar to the Welcome notification and includes the user's initial password. But determine if the My First Spam notification is enabled.
2. Using the displayorg command, determine if the My First Spam notification has been sent.The disable_first_spam field is an activation switch for a new user’s notification telling the user the first spam message has been quarantined in the user’s Message Center. When ‘off’ the user is notified.
3. Using the displayuser command, determine if the user has ever logged in to the Message Center.The active field indicates whether the user has ever logged into the Message Center.
In the Administration Console, check the user's quarantine, and if the user also has not had any messages quarantined, you can safely delete and immediately recreate the user.
4.The adduser <user address>, welcome= <1 or 0> parameter, if enabled, sends an immediate welcome message (welcome=1) when a user is created.
Setting a Virus Notification Interval
This example shows how to set a virus notification interval for an organization and for a user.
Note: This example uses the Administration Console batch command syntax.
Enable the Virus Notificaiton Interval
1. Using the displayorg command, determine the virus notification interval for an organization and set a new value.The virus_notify (for orgs) field holds frequency of a user’s virus notifications.
1=nomore than one notice per day
NULL=(user only) use org-level setting
3. Using the modifyuser command, set a virus notification interval for a user.The virus_notify (for users) field holds frequency of a user’s virus notifications.
