Hi Dannon, thanks for the info. I'd like to take this a small step further. I added the variable smtp_from to universe_wsgi.ini. Then I modified the util.send_mail in ./lib/galaxy/util/__init__.py to check if config.smtp_from is set: if config.smtp_from is None: msg[ 'From' ] = frm else: msg[ 'From' ] = config.smtp_from Still frm is set to the old value (galaxy-no-reply@computeserver). Can anyone point me to the place where universe_wsgi.ini is actually parsed and the config dictionary is filled? Holger On 08/03/2011 02:53 PM, Dannon Baker wrote:
Holger,
There isn't currently a galaxy-wide configuration for the from header address. Most places use frm = 'galaxy-noreply@%s' % host, where host is the fqdn of the box, as you've seen. I took a quick look, and it does look like everything that sends mail uses util.send_mail, so you could just modify that method to ignore the input frm parameter and immediately set it to frm = 'galaxy@imb-mainz.de' and you should be good to go.

Hi all,
for the email functionality of our local galaxy instance I'm forced to use SMTP authentication and to use a specific "from", which is different to what galaxy generates automatically.
Now galaxy generates a "from" like galaxy@computeserver.imb.uni-mainz.de but I want to set this to galaxy@imb-mainz.de.
A quick check shows that the send_mail function defined in lib/galaxy/util/__init__.py is called in various places.
Is there a way to set the "from" to a specific value?
If not, it send_mail the only galaxy-function used to send mail?
Cheers, Holger
