SharePoint - Dev environment trick: Be impatient for all those alert emails

Posted on 10/8/2007 @ 1:54 PM in #Sharepoint | 4 comments | 3117 views

SharePoint by default will send out all alert emails once every 5 minutes. That's great, except in development you don't wanna wait 5 minutes to see your email changes apply.

Thankfully, there is a way to fix that using the following command -

stsadm -o setproperty -propertyname job-immediate-alerts -url http://yourmosssite -propertyvalue "every 1 minutes between 0 and 59"

The above will start sending these alerts every minute.

w00t!
