I found a project called toltec that is basically a microsoft outlook plugin that allows to access an imap server for shared folders and all the calendaring features outlook supports. I think it uses iCalendar or vCalendar. I was wondering if the c-client has also support for shared folders and calendaring because we would like to use the c-client to develop a web front-end for this purpose.
Mailbox sharing is a feature of the mail store and/or the IMAP server; it is not something determined by c-client. Some of the mailbox formats supported by c-client, most notably mix and mbx, support sharing. The traditional UNIX mailbox format (mbox format) does not support sharing.
The IMAP protocol does not have calendaring. Calendaring is a separate protocol in the IETF protocol suite. That protocol is not supported by the c-client library, but there are other libraries which support it. You can build your application to use c-client for email and your chosen calendar library for calendaring; there is no reason why you can't have both in the same application.
