[jira] Created: (INFRA-1519) Install Confluence Form Mail Plugin to
send email from cwiki website page
Install Confluence Form Mail Plugin to send email from cwiki website page
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: INFRA-1519
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-1519
Project: Infrastructure
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Components: Confluence
Reporter: ant elder
Priority: Minor
I'm looking for a way to send anonymous email from a website page to our mailing list and found this Confluence Form Mail Plugin:
http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONFEXT/Form+Mail+Plugin
Is it possible to install that plugin for use by our cwiki based website?
Alternatively, any ideas for some other way to do this?
Thanks for your help.

Resolution: Won't Fix
Given that all content from confluence should be exported to www. and not accessed directly, this is a very bad idea.

The replies can be seen by reading the mailing list archives.
The form mail plugin includes mailier abuse protection (see the doc page about the plugin) and the emails go via moderation so it wont be of much use for spammers.

Jeff Turner resolved INFRA-1519.

I think that if we wanted to allow a more anonymous means of asking questions, then forums software would be the correct solution. A form in Confluence won't help at all, as it provides no way for the poster to receive answers. It will also be a magnet for spammers.

Why would this be a good thing to have? :)

I've had feedback that people are not posting to our mailing lists for various reasons - shyness, not wanting to be seen to be asking dum questions, not being seen to not know things they feel they should know, not wanting their or their companies name / email address to being seen in the archives etc. A way to solve this could be to provide this anonymous posting facility. The anonymous emails would go via the mailing list moderation facility so it shouldn't casue any problems should it?
