Re: [37226] Imap Sent Mails
byDear Frederik,
I find the easiest way to set up email for Odoo is to create a subdomain for Odoo emails using a catch-all or aliases, separate from the chat emails of the people using mail clients.
However if you want to have messages stored in an IMAP store, and depending on your familiarity with Linux, you could use various tools to forward or duplicate copies at transmission time. Such messages could then be delivered to IMAP boxes through pipemail, procmail, exim etc - a mail client can subscribe to the box and access the messages.
The recipe would vary depending on exactly what you wanted to achieve, and bear in mind that outbound and inbound have separate life-cycles.
Best wishes,
Stuart.

Dear OCA, talking to a lead about Sales and Distribution, we again (as many times in the past) again came across Odoos somewhat weired way to reinterpret / resuse traditional E-Mail flows (what we all know, use, and are familiar with by using Imap-Servers / Exchange and some form of E-Mail clients (Outlook / Thunderbird). One of the weird things (among many) is that Odoo (apart from the technical sent mail queue) doesn't make us of the features (store sent mail in an IMAP Folder) as it sents Mail through SMTP but not implements the traditional functionality of an E-Mail client to allow storing such mail in an configurable Imap Folder. By searching a solution for that i came across a 3rd party module https://apps.odoo.com/apps/modules/14.0/base_store_sent_emails I thought to myself that we are certainly not the only ones who have this issue. So my question is. Is it really such an exotic feature that nobody in the OCA ever even ideated on such a functionality or is it worthless (i am simply to conservative to change my mind). Or even better does some publicly available concept, module, code exist that i am just not aware of ? Any thoughts, ideas on that Best and thanks for any reply upfront Frederik -- Dr.-Ing.
