Hide Users from the Names lookup

I would like to request to hide SmartCloud users in names lookup. We tested it in Domino OnPrem and it works fine but it does not work for SmartCloud users. Here are the steps we have done in Domino OnPrem.

 

-OPEN DOMINO ADMIN.

-GO TO PEOPLE AND GROUPS

-GO TO PEOPLE IN THE LEFT PANE

-RIGHT-CLICK THE USER/GROUP

-SELECT DOCUMENT PROPERTIES

-GO TO SECURITY/KEY TAB

-UNCHECK "ALL READERS AND ABOVE"

-SELECT ALL USERS WHO CAN SEE THE USER/GROUP IN THE LOOKUP

 

 

IN NOTES CLIENT

-CLOSE ALL TABS

(RESTART NOTES CLIENT)

-OPEN MAIL TAB

-COMPOSE EMAIL

-SEARCH THE USER/GROUP IN THE TO FIELD


RESULT:

-The name of the user won't show up if the user composing the email was not added in the allowed readers.

 

Hopefully this will be implemented as well in SmartCloud Notes.

    Hi Thomas,

    We want to some of the TOP management peoples and some email id's those we are using for only outside communication and confidential miscellaneous work. We want to hide this category users from the internal users. 

    Domino feature is working for Group but not for users. 

    Can you just share the steps, how are you suggesting to hide on my email id raj.rajpoot@parle.biz

    Why would you like to hide users? Whats the reason for it?
    What you can do is to use a different directory for your cloud users. In the cloud admin UI you can specify the directory sync server and file name, just create a new onprem directory for the users you want to keep isolated. However, I dont understand why you would want to do that.

    This has one drawback IMHO : you cannot keep track of the hidden ones unless you open them 1 by 1. A real nuisance if you have a large Domino Directory. It would be handy to have on the PersonDoc / Mail-in Doc, ... a checkbox that says something like "hide in type-ahead". You can then easily have a view with all docs that have that box checked.
