Mail Template setting will not apply through policy

HCL Domino Domino Forum

We’ve configured a Desktop Setting to deploy different Mail Templates based on the Notes version. 1st problem is that we can only specify 1 Client and 1 Mail Template. We’re trying to set it up so Release 6.5.4 Clients get a notes6.ntf template and so Release 7.0.2 Clients get a notes7.ntf template. It’ll only let us do one or the other.In addition, we’ve associated the Desktop Setting with a Policy assigned to our Test OU and this Mail Template modification isn’t getting applied.

Any Ideas?

From my Desktop Setting Policy doc (note: This MAY have been added in the R8 template):

Mail Template Information

Note: The information in this section is only used during client upgrades.

–

The mail template is only checked when the client gets upgraded. To test - take someone in your test OU and install a new client - you’ll see the template get upgraded if the name is specified correctly.
