Dear Rayan,
I know that the create user method accepts SHA1 passwords.
however, the scenario is that i have already created the account for
the user. however, i want a method/function to update the user's
password at google apps, whenever he changes his password it at our
local systems (our SSO/LDAP).
What i found in the PHP API docs to update passwords, is to do
the following, retrieve the user in an object, set the new password
(PLAIN TEXT), then save the user object. so what I'm looking for is a
similar way to update the password fild but in SHA1 format.
Regarding migration, there is many tools that can do a server-to-
server migration such as IMAPsync (http://www.linux-france.org/prj/
imapsync/README). if we used this tool, to migrate our local mailboxes
to gmail over IMAP, will it work properly as in the case of any
standard IMAP server. or this is not supported, as google needs to
label the messages with folder names during migration. i.e. if we used
the imapsync, will it give us the same result as using the server-to-
server migration tool in the Google APPS control panel.
N.B. We want to use the imapsync tool (or any ohter API/tool) to
automate the migration process and allow the user to migrate their
mailboxes through a nice web interface.
Regards,
Marmina
