When will the classic theme, that many users have requested in the last

The new "mobile first"-design may be nice to look at but it is painful
to work with on desktop computers.



if I understand correctly the new thing with 3.0 is the new WebGUI.
If you do not want it, stick with 2.3.x which is the same under the
hood, and have the well know WebGUI.


I can stick with the desktop-friendly version (v2) as long as it will 
receive security updates and bug fixes.
And I hope this will last some time or I have to search for an 
alternative...


My users are all using IMAP+CalDAV+CardDAV on the mobile devices, so 
there's no need for a "mobile-first" version.
The only use case for the web login is on desktop machines (i.e. 
Internet Café, at work, with friends etc.)

I mean from this demo here http://sogo-demo.inverse.ca/SOGo/
is it thunderbird running as mail component here

Is it thunderbird that you customised into objective c?



The SOGo-Demo you see on the Website is the SOGOo Webmail Client.
This client is something completely different from Thunderbird/Lightning 
-- it just is made to *look like* Thunderbird.

This web client is written in ObjC + AJAX + HTML/CSS etc.

There is no Thunderbird behind this SOGo web client and it is not 
ported/customized/anything else. It just looks like it to make it easier 
to use.

Hallo,


The v2 theme hasn't changed for years. It's time to move on.


I don't even want to know how much time we waste every year re-training
users because someone found it was necessary to move on. I hope the v3
design will be good enough to stay with us for a couple of years as well.


I understand your concern. We hope the interfaces of v3 will last as long as 
the ones of v2.


I still hope you will be providing a classic user interface that 
follows the direction of the good old-style paradigm, which is:


- you really can SEE what a button is, because a button is something 
that can be pressed and as such is elevated (we had buttons which 
cannot be seen as such in Windows8 but also in the era of 
black-and-white screens)


- you can see what functions a software offers because the functions are 
offered to the users -- and not hidden in ways like this function is 
only shown when you select something in exactly this way. This goes 
against the direction of showing functions ONLY in a context-sensitive 
way. Context-sensitive showing of functions is something for a 
context-menu, which is available through the right mouse button-menu or 
a gear-wheel menu.


- you can distinguish icons by its *color* -- the human eye can really 
distinguish between colors! Many software products and web 
applications of todays time have grayscale icons which are only 
distinguishable through their shape, not through their color.
But searching for the icon with the red X in it is so much easyier 
than trying to find an icon wich may look like a trashcan.



None is too many, sometimes. Why do we need floating buttons now when we
just spent years training users to use the toolbars?


I don't think the paradigm is far from the traditional toolbars.

 The goal is really to have an intuitive interface, simpler to use.

I hope that this simpler does not mean the same as the Windows8-like or 
Apple-like simpler, which does only mean uglier and harder to use.


You have to notice that many users really use this kind of software on a 
daily basis, so it is not necessary to dumb-down the software or its UI.


Many users have learned for over 20 years now how to use a user 
interface which is based on menus, toolbars, lists, real buttons etc.


Please do not throw away this knowledge just for being modern.


That's just my observations with recent UX improvements from
Google/Microsoft/random webapps copying their styles – or rather, the
main things my users complain about to me. It takes too long to identify
interactive elements (due to the everything must be flat and there
can't be any elevated elements craze – Material isn't the worst
offender here, thankfully), and when they do, the elements randomly
disappear because users try to reach them from a slightly different
context, like in Firefox' and Office 2013's context dependant context
menus – Firefox doesn't even show keyboard shortcuts any more, so while
they still exist, the average user wouldn't know how to look them up.


Flat design as it was initially proposed had weaknesses.

 Apple and other software companies have adjusted their user

interfaces since  then.
We'll do our best to not repeat those errors.


Then PLEASE PLEASE offer an additional classic style theme with 
elevated, really-look-as-if-you-can-click-on-it buttons, real toolbars 
etc. which does not pop up new things every now and then out of nowhere 
and which does not use half of the screen for oversized headers (like 
Google Material Design does.


By the way, just compare the old and new look of the GMail app on 
Android (Old Android Design vs. Material Design):

http://m.c.lnkd.licdn.com/mpr/mpr/p/6/005/073/2ac/2ffbebe.jpg

The old interface shows more content and more information on the same 
screen -- and the content is not overlapped with some create new 
bubble. Also the menu bar offers more functions than now. Also it was 
easyier to distinguish between two messages because of a darker line 
between them.

Just an example...


As long as the shiney new presentation doesn't impact productivity, I
won't mind. But far too many recent re-designs sacrificed usability to
be more impressive in presentations, and I'm more than a bit wary of
them by now.


We are totally aware that SOGo is a productivity tool and needs a very good 
usability.


I hope so.

On one system, I have to work with Office2010, I still have problems 
finding some functions thanks to the Ribbon design. When using 
LibreOffice, which respects the users preference for real menus, it is 
easier for me to find functions and options. Just another example.

Re: [SOGo] Gmail to SOGo migration?

Hi,


Does anyone have experience in migrating a pure GMail setup to SOGo?


I used to migrate away from Google Apps some time ago with different 
stations in between until I reached SOGo.


I don't know if there are tools existing for doing the data export in a 
batch job for all of your users.


Besides SOGo, you need to have a running mail system (e.g. 
Postfix+Dovecot) and authentication system (LDAP or SQL etc.).


As far as I know, Google allows you to export the user data, which would be:

- E-Mails: you can export all E-Mails via IMAP and import them into your 
existing mail system via IMAP.
- Calendar: Google allows exporting every calendar in iCal format which 
can be imported into SOGo.
- Contacts: same applies here, Google allows exporting all contacts as 
vCards (single or all in one file) which can be imported. Here you have 
to note that SOGo has some restrictions concerning the number of E-Mail 
addresses and phone numbers that can be used in contacts.


I don't know if importing .ics and .vcf files into a sogo database can 
be automated, but for IMAP several unix tools exist.


I hope that my points were a little useful for you.

Re: [SOGo] Visibility of CalDAV calendars on Android

Hallo,


Ive got the same problem. I think we must add the entier URL instead of
just the server to
have to work
server/SOGo/dav/user .;


Besides the problem of visibility, this CalDAV client seems to work well.

Other clients (iPhone/iPad, iCal on OSX, Lightning) only show the 
relevant information.


So I guess, this specific CalDAV client asks for the information in a 
slightly different way and SOGo offers a list of all available calendars.


I think, this should not happen.

Did you try the SOGo Integrator?
If you build it for yourself, and set up an update site next to SOGo,
the set up will be very simple, and you can use the share/subscribe
features on the pages of Lightning and Addressbook apps.

If more people interested in this method, I can create and present a
short doc about easy set up these things on your site for you.


I looked at the documentation (SOGo Mozilla Thunderbird 
Configuration.pdf), decided that this documentation is far from complete 
and ignored the Integrator for now.


It would be great if you could provide some more documentation on it, 
especially on:


- what do the options in the files
   defaults/preferences/*.js
   chrome/content/extensions.rdf
  mean?
- what does the directory custom/sogo-demo do?

Some examples (and a overall documentation on the options) of update.php

Actually, Horde's ActiveSync module is based on Z-Push:

The code that handles the protocol level is essentially the same, though it has 
been heavily refactored and cleaned.

Ref.:  http://wiki.horde.org/ActiveSync#toc24


And it is very limited -- all Horde calendars (that are selected to be

I've pointed to this bug several times, I was told that this is by

[SOGo] Need help on Sieve rules

Hallo,

I've set up a SOGo installation for (mostly) personal use (I've migrated 
from Horde).


My question is:

I need a certain function for one Sieve rule that I had in my previous 
setup.
I like to copy(!) each incoming mail into a special All Mails folder 
in my IMAP mailbox and mark this copy as Seen.


In my last setup using Horde's filter tool, the Sieve file that has been 
created looks like this:


snip
[... other rules for mailing lists...]

if exists From  {
addflag \\Seen;
fileinto Alle Mails;
removeflag \\Seen;
}

if exists From  {
fileinto INBOX;
}
snip

Now I want to rebuild my filter settings in SOGo.

But I did not find a way to say
... fileinto :copy Alle Mails (like RFC 3894 tells)
... removeflag \\Seen

Does anyone have an idea on how to implement this using SOGo?

Or should I file a feature request for :copy or removeflag?

Thank you
