Lost shared mailbox after upgrade

Post by cichy_misiek »

Hi,
we have Zimbra 7.2.7 and and 4000 accounts. We have group mailboxes, which are shared to users with this way:

zmprov ga group1@domain.com | grep zimbraId (search ID for groups mailboox)
1111-2222-3333-4444-5555-6666 (this is result for above comand)

zmprov ma name@domain.com +zimbraChildAccount 1111-2222-3333-4444-5555-6666 (share group mailbox step 1)
zmprov ma user1name@domain.com +zimbraPrefChildVisibleAccount 1111-2222-3333-4444-5555-6666 (share group mailbox step 2)

After upgrade to Zimbra 8.0.9 shared mailboxes are lost. have any idea how to repair this.

From Zimbra 8.5.0 zimbraChildAccount and zimbraPrefChildVisibleAccount options are disabled. How I can migrate accounts without this options to version 8.6.0?

Hi,

Child account (family mailboxes) feature has been discontinued in Zimbra 8.0 (and later)
You can use sharing and delegation (sendAs and sendOnBehalfOf) instead.

Tomek

Hi, Tomek
Child account (family mailboxes) feature has been deprecated from Zimbra 8.5.0 and later. In version 8.0.9 this function is still working.
My problem is in migration from 7.2.7 to 8.0.9. I lost ChildAccound dependences.

Hello Tomek,

The Zeta Alliance is bringing back some of the old functionality in this crowdfunder:
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/zimb ... strators#/

Its not the same, but it is pretty close. You can check out the extension from Github,
and if you like it, back our crowdfunder maybe?!!

Regards, Barry
