Hi Keith, as I want to switch from windows with outlook ( email some accounts some provider, contacts, calendar events )
where easily can sync contacts and calendar to my nokia symbina phone, to linux and Sogo might be useful. As I understand SOGo is a Groupware which can sync by active sync. But I do not find how to use Sogo after installation. regards Jo ________________________________________ Von: users-requ...@sogo.nu [users-requ...@sogo.nu] im Auftrag von Keith Williams [users@sogo.nu] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 17.

Don't think of SOGo as a complete email solution. What SOGo does very, very genios(TM)-ly, is to make almost any email type service a compete collaborative/business type solution. SOGo is the extra gear. SOGo basically provides to your already setup email server ( be that your local mail server or outside service provider ) and then servers the calendar/contacts Active Sync or DAV. So no need for a out of box licensed system or propietary system. So more of a layer to take your average mail system to professional collaboration. :-) So if you want to get to grips with SOGo and a mail solution quickly.. there's a awesome solution called iredmail (http://www.iredmail.org/) that will set up a system from scratch to a complete solution. Check it out. If this doesn't help, buzz me on my private email addie and we get it sorted :-) Regards, On 17/11/2016 16:22, Christian Mack (christian.m...@uni-konstanz.de) wrote: > Hello > > Am 06.11.2016 um 17:17 schrieb adg adg82439 (adg82...@live.de): >> Hello, >> >> as I tried some installation tips in the Internet, >> which doesn't bring ME to a solution, >> most of them make assumption like some kind of servers or static ip address, >> ... >> which I do not have and finally wasn't able to adapt into a working >> environment >> >> >> I ask is there some kind of manual available >> to install SOGo on a single Home Linux PC >> >> for the purpose of migrate and serve emails, calendar, contcacts >> from Windows 7-Outlook to Linux SOGo >> >> and be able to synchronize contacts and events to smartphones by activesync >> (Symbian,iOS,Android) >> and receive from several email provider emails stored in SOGo (Dovecot)? >> > > Without a static IP-Address or at least a Dyn-DNS-Setup SOGo is not > usable, as you cannot access it with your devices. > > Whether you use a workstation which runs 24x7 or a server or a VM is > irrelevant. > > > Kind regards, > Christian Mack > -- users@sogo.nu https://inverse.ca/sogo/lists -- users@sogo.nu https://inverse.ca/sogo/lists
