7.10.1 Unable to send mail as user without setting up *incoming* mail, and other Email setup issues.

I was able to work around my original issue with the code I documented at:
https://github.com/salesagility/SuiteCRM/issues/5774#issuecomment-392143796

This allows all users to send email with the email address in their profile.

Iā€™ve upgraded from 7.10.4 to 7.10.5 and noticed that two of the accounts can only send from Group accounts while others can still send from their personal account. Will try you code if that resolves the issue.
What I find strange is that you mention " Iā€™m going to see if I can add a checkbox option on the admin page to enable/disable this behavior."

Since for my collegues it works fineā€¦

[UPDATE] Nope, it doesnā€™t work. Probably because the dropdown is not empty.

[UPDATE] Iā€™ve edited the mailbox record via the system/management page. Strangely it inserts the wrong information for new users. It seems that it looks up the default system mailbox (for workflows etc.) and inserts that in the from/reply information fields for new mailboxes.

pvzijl,
Iā€™m not using any mail boxes. If any data gets returned from mailboxes, then the code I wrote wonā€™t be used. System mailboxes donā€™t count. They will show in the dropdown along with the addresses returned by my code.

here is a fix for missing outbound/inbound email
