Hi,
I'm interested in the SOGo groupware solution but I need to understand
it better before deciding if our institute will switch to this solution.
So far we are using a postfix/dovecot mail server, roundcube is our webmail.
We also have a calendar solution which is synchronizing via caldav.
The problem with our current solution is it's not covering all our user
needs.
Some people are using outlook on a mac (or iphone) where there isn't
support for plugins, which means the caldav is unsupported too.
I see SOGo can use ActiveSync to solve this.
But I'm not familiar with ActiveSync.
And when checking the official documentation, I only see "Outlook
Connector Configuration Guide" while v3 of SOGo was offering a "Native
Microsoft Outlook Configuration Guide".
I did made a temporary test with the nightly build and I could
successfully connect to our self-hosted sogo server which is using
postfix's database for auth.
But from there I'm not sure what to do the next.
When pointing outlook to that host, it gives me the error: "Log onto
Exchange ActiveSync mail server (EAS): The server cannot be found."
I suppose I'm missing some understanding of the overall architecture for
this to work.
I'm confused, is this activesync feature still available?
Is it possible to plug outlook via activesync directly to the sogo
server (which will retreive user data from postfix database) or do I
have to install a fake ldap/openchange server and duplicate my user
database?
Thanks for your help.
