When I found that I got rejections I read such docs as I found, and they seemed to say that I must have sasl working. The docs on the kde site say that I need in dovecot.conf: auth default { mechanisms = plain login passdb pam { } userdb passwd { } socket listen { client { path = /var/spool/postfix/private.auth mode = 0660 user = postfix group = postfix } } } and in postfix's main.cf smtp_sasl_type = dovecot smtp_sasl_path = private/auth smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtp_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination I've done that, but it doesn't work. It looks as though I have to set up a password database, but I'd really like it to simply use the login database. I'm out of my depth here. Anne

I have had IMAP mail for some time, but to get the resources working I need, apparently, to be able to log in as Groupware to access the shared resources. On the server I added sections to dovecot.conf and postfix main.cf as described in HowTo/PostfixAndDovecotSASL. In KMail, on the client, I used 'See what the server supports' and set it to TLS + clear text. I don't appear to be getting a rejection, but the resources are not being read. /var/log/maillog shows these lines Mar 17 13:35:52 borg2 postfix/smtp[24339]: fatal: specify a password table via the `smtp_sasl_password_maps' configuration parameter Hmm, I'd say that postfix has nothing to do with it.

Dunno exactly, I tried it once for a colleague, but don't use it myself: 1) enter KMail 2) Create an Identity that can login into IMAP successfully 3) Configure KMail | Misc | Groupware 3a) Enable IMAP resource functionality 3b) configure the remaining stuff on the dialogue The information is saved as messages in special IMAP mail folders, so the ability to login into IMAP is essential. I'm not sure, I think you need to do something in KOrganizer, e.g. pull in some remote calendar "IMAP", too.
