I did see some reference on another mailing list about davical having this issue with Lightning and it related to davical reporting that it supported the 'calendar-auto-schedule' feature. I did some further research and it seems that if a caldav server indicates it support for the 'calendar-auto-schedule' feature, then that means the server, rather than Lightning, will be responsible for sending email notifications. Is my understanding correct? So it seems that I needed to set 'SOGoAppointmentSendEMailNotifications = YES;' which is turned off by default. So it seems that unlike my old server, SOGo is responsible for sending notifications. After setting this and receiving a notification email, this brings up another issue: When I receive the email from the SOGo server and hit Accept, I get a popup 'Would you like to send out notification E-Mail now?' YES/NO. If SOGo is responsible for emails due to this 'calendar-auto-schedule' feature, why is Lightning wanting to send another email? Is this part of the protocol or a redundant step? -- users@sogo.nu https://inverse.ca/sogo/lists

This issue appears to be related to using using https for the addressbook and it not providing an option to save the password. If the URL for the calendar and addressbook are the same, and thunderbird saves the password when setting up the calendar, it seems to be okay. But if they are different it does not save and prompts each time. For example, during testing I tried having my calendar at https://cal.example.com and address book at https://addr.example.com. Is this a SOGo connector issue or thunderbird? -- users@sogo.nu https://inverse.ca/sogo/lists
[SOGo] Invite attendees no notification
Can someone explain to me how invite attendees works with SOGo / SOGo connector? Previosuly we used davical and when an outlook user invited me, I received an email that Thunderbird/Lightning displayed with an Accept / Decline / Tentative button. Now I am trying SOGo (and removed outlook from the picture) - so it is Thunderbird/Lightning only - and there is no notification. I basically have no clue that someone invited me unless I goto the calendar view and notice an 'outline' around the event. On the Today Pane there is not even this distinction. And on the invitor side even bringing up the event does not show if the invitee accepted or declined. You need a further additional click on their username to see that. This doesn't seem to work as I would expect. I did some searching of the mailing list archive and it sounds like this type of email should be generated because some people were complaining about wrong emails being used.

[SOGo] New user questions
Hi all, I am a brand new user of SOGo and have a few questions/feedback. I am using it for the Calendar and Address book with SQL backend only. My current frontend testing is on Windows, I will do Linux (Fedora distro) next. 1) I followed the Installation guide (PDF file), but there was some missing info. I'm using Centos 6.4 and the guide has no mention of needing to install the EPEL repo. For others having this issue, it is answered in the FAQ, but should probably be part of the install guide. 2) The install guide and default sogo.conf does not work with Centos 6 postgresql. localhost needs to be replaced with 127.0.0.1 (perhaps an IPv6 lookup issue). It took me a while to figure this out. 3) Calendar ACL / permissions was confusing to me. I could not figure out how to set them. I found my way to the 'Sharing' right click menu on the calendar and searched for another user. When it displayed that user it displayed the persons name and there was checkbox next to the name that says 'Subscribe user'. I have no idea what that means or does. In addition it took me more than an hour of looking around under various locations (and in the database) to figure out that you double click the persons name to get another dialog where you can change the access rights from the default. Finding this was not documented and very confusing. 4) Whenever a SOGo dialog is displayed, the window is below (z-order issue) my main browser window, requiring me to constantly move/alt-tab to find the dialog. 5) I am running Thunderbird 24 w/ Lightning 2.6. I downloaded nightly build of sogo-connector-24.0.0-679d27bda6.xpi (dated Oct 7 2013). I am NOT running integrator - not sure of the need. a) Is thunderbird/sogo supposed to periodically update the address book when changes are make? Lightning has a refresh interval option - I don't see anything for the address book. b) Every time I launch Thunderbird it asks for a username/password for the address book. There was never an option to save it to the master passwords like the calendar. This is a show stopper. Has this always been like this or is this a Thunderbird 24 issue? 6) I have no desire to use the 'Mail' interface. Is there a way to disable the mail feature alltogether? I notice from the logs that the sogod server tries to login to an imap which I did not define, but I dont want it to. And on the web frontend there is a Mail tab, can that be removed/disabled? 7) It would be nice if SSL/STARTTLS was supported on the SMTP interface. I had to setup an stunnel to communicate with my off-site mail server. 8) The web frontend page does not save passwords. I am not sure if it is coded in a non-standard way, but neither Firefox nor my add-in KeeFox plugin detect the login screen and offer to save username/passwords for the web frontend. 9) Using the default sogo.conf file, how do I know if memcached is being used? 10) The install guide (page 30) says of the isAddressBook parameter - if set to YES, this SQL source is used as a shared address book (with read-only access). What does it mean by read-only access? This threw me off because it appears I am able to read and write my address book which is what I desired, not just read only. -- users@sogo.nu https://inverse.ca/sogo/lists
