IMAP Solutions

[dahido]

I have a Scalix server running in an environment with people using Mac and others using Windows. Most of the Mac users are using the default mail solution and the Windows users are using Outlook Express, both through IMAP. Since this is the case, the Calendar/Contact/Task/etc special folders are not showing up as those types of folders in the clients. What would be a good solution on either operating system, rather than forcing them to log into the web every time they want to use these?

Thanks.

Actually, you don't have many choices.

Displaying special folders in appropriate formats and with appropriate functionality requires specialized clients or connectors.

You can use Scalix Web Access, Outlook with Scalix Connect for Outlook on Windows, and Evolution with Scalix Connect for Evolution on Linux.

Support for standards-based Calendaring clients based on the CalDAV standard will become available in a future release.

Cheers,
Florian.
