           Summary: Installation and documentation not clear
           Product: SME Contribs

I have been battling for 3 hours trying to get zarafa to work and I must say
the documentation is very, very, very unclear.

Firstly nowhere in the documentation does it say that you need to ensure that
you have to disable Webmail access in server-manager before starting otherwise
it won't work. Bug 5162 relates but doesn't fix the problem.

After getting it installed (finally!!!) I began by setting all mail to be sent
to zarafa and then attempted to "create" users, however there is no panel as
suggested in the documentation. I have scouted high and low and in
server-manager I can not find a panel that will allow you to create zarafa
users. I even changed my account to a zarafa admin account and there is no
"panel" for user creation.

So I create a user by hand and I am able to log in via the webmail, great,
except none of my old imap emails are there. I have made the revelvant changes
in Thunderbird however my old emails are still in Thunderbird but not in
zarafa. How I move all of my mail from it's current location to zarafa and
still access them via thunderbird?

I then moved onto setting up the calendar in Thunder/Lighting however I am
confused as to which url to use. Also the port numbers in the example are
confusing especially when you read further down. To explain further in your
example you use port 8089 with http, but obviously this will not work, as 8089
is the ssl port. I have since found that if you use http://<server>:8088/caldav
will work, but what is the point of .../caldav/<user>/<calendar>?

Also is it possible to connect your Thunderbird address book to zarafa to have
a single location for everything.

If you would like some further information please let me know, I have been as
detailed as I can be as I went through the process. No matter how harsh this
bug report is, I do appreciate the work done it getting it up there, I just
want to make sure that the next guy/girl doesn't have to suffer the same fate
as I have just been through.

Thanks and looking forward to working with everyone to resolve these issues.
