    1919Alternatively, a default domain name ('''`smtp_default_domain`''') can be set in the TracIni file (see [#ConfigurationOptions Configuration Options] below). In this case, the default domain will be appended to the username, which can be useful for an "Intranet" kind of installation. 
     20 
     21When using apache and mod_kerb for authentication against Kerberos / Active Directory, usernames take the form ('''`username@EXAMPLE.LOCAL`'''). To avoid this being interpreted as an email address, add the Kerberos domain to  ('''`ignore_domains`'''). 
    2022 
    2123== Configuring SMTP Notification == 
     
    3941 * '''`use_public_cc`''': (''since 0.10'') Addresses in To: (owner, reporter) and Cc: lists are visible by all recipients (default is ''Bcc:'' - hidden copy). 
    4042 * '''`use_short_addr`''': (''since 0.10'') Enable delivery of notifications to addresses that do not contain a domain (i.e. do not end with ''@<domain.com>'').This option is useful for intranets, where the SMTP server can handle local addresses and map the username/login to a local mailbox. See also `smtp_default_domain`. Do not use this option with a public SMTP server.  
     43 * '''`ignore_domains`''': Comma-separated list of domains that should not be considered part of email addresses (for usernames with Kerberos domains). 
    4144 * '''`mime_encoding`''': (''since 0.10'') This option allows selecting the MIME encoding scheme. Supported values: 
    4245   * `none`: default value, uses 7bit encoding if the text is plain ASCII, or 8bit otherwise.  
     
    4649 * '''`email_sender`''': (''since 0.12'') Name of the component implementing `IEmailSender`. This component is used by the notification system to send emails. Trac currently provides the following components: 
    4750   * `SmtpEmailSender`: connects to an SMTP server (default). 
    48    * `SendmailEmailSender`: runs a `sendmail`-compatible executable. 
     51   * `SendmailEmailSender`: runs a `sendmail`-compatible executable.    
    4952 
    5053Either '''`smtp_from`''' or '''`smtp_replyto`''' (or both) ''must'' be set, otherwise Trac refuses to send notification mails. 
     
    9598=== Customizing the e-mail content === 
    9699 
    97 The notification e-mail content is generated based on `ticket_notify_email.txt` in `trac/ticket/templates`.  You can add your own version of this template by adding a `ticket_notify_email.txt` to the templates directory of your environment. The default looks like this:

     163== Customizing e-mail content for MS Outlook == 
     164 
     165Out-of-the-box, MS Outlook normally presents plain text e-mails with a variable-width font; the ticket properties table will most certainly look like a mess in MS Outlook. This can be fixed with some customization of the [#Customizingthee-mailcontent e-mail template]. 
     166 
     167Replace the following second row in the template: 
     168{{{ 
     169$ticket_props 
     170}}} 
     171 
     172with this instead (''requires Python 2.6 or later''): 
     173{{{ 
     174-------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
     175{% with 
     176   pv = [(a[0].strip(), a[1].strip()) for a in [b.split(':') for b in 
     177         [c.strip() for c in  
     178          ticket_props.replace('|', '\n').splitlines()[1:-1]] if ':' in b]]; 
     179   sel = ['Reporter', 'Owner', 'Type', 'Status', 'Priority', 'Milestone',  
     180          'Component', 'Severity', 'Resolution', 'Keywords'] %}\ 
     181${'\n'.join('%s\t%s' % (format(p[0]+':', ' <12'), p[1]) for p in pv if p[0] in sel)} 
     182{% end %}\ 
     183-------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
     184}}} 
     185 
     186The table of ticket properties is replaced with a list of a selection of the properties. A tab character separates the name and value in such a way that most people should find this more pleasing than the default table, when using MS Outlook.

     221 
     222**Important**: Only those ticket fields that are listed in `sel` are part of the HTML mail. If you have defined custom ticket fields which shall be part of the mail they have to be added to `sel`, example: 
     223{{{ 
     224   sel = ['Reporter', ..., 'Keywords', 'Custom1', 'Custom2'] 
     225}}} 
     226 
     227However, it's not as perfect as an automatically HTML-formatted e-mail would be, but presented ticket properties are at least readable by default in MS Outlook...
